Summary

Spiritual growth is never over, it just gets more subtle. The hidden and deeply rooted assumptions we make about the simplest of things can colour so much of how we approach life, how we treat ourselves, and how we constantly chid and criticise ourselves. Remembering that everything unfolds with perfect timing and decisions can release so much personal judgement and mental noise. AUTOBIOGRAPHY IN FIVE CHAPTERS by Portia Nelson I I walk down the street. There is a deep hole in the sidewalk. I fall in. I am lost … I am hopeless. It isn't my fault. It takes forever to find a way out. II I walk down the same street. There is a deep hole in the sidewalk. I pretend I don't see it. I fall in again. I can't believe I'm in the same place. But it isn't my fault. It still takes a long time to get out. III I walk down the same street. There is a deep hole in the sidewalk. I see it is there. I still fall in … it’s a habit. My eyes are open. I know where I am. It is my fault. I get out immediately. IV I walk down the same street. There is a deep hole in the sidewalk. I walk around it. V I walk down another street.
