GROWTH BY ACCIDENT

141/365

MINI BITES

Whenever we hear the statement ‘it was an accident’, it is often after an outcome that provides no benefit and for which one has to apologise. Rarely does anybody attribute a good outcome to an accident, even if that was indeed the case.

In life, we may do a lot of things by accident and arrive in certain places in the same way. However, one cannot become spiritual or grow by accident. This is because a spiritual life is a set of behaviours and not a box of random picks or a combination of trial and errors. It is a cocktail of intentional choices and decisions that align with a specific order of thinking and living.

We therefore arrive at a simple conclusion : no matter who you are, you, you cannot grow by accident. For such growth can only be borne as a fruit of consistency, commitment and dedication.
