There is nothing random about any of life’s events: every single thing, good and bad, is sent to us purposefully in order to prompt us to eventually question the purpose of our lives and to try to get to know the upper power that is orchestrating our world.

Just as we organize all aspects of our schools in order to maximize the learning progress of our children, so this upper power organizes all things within our world to hasten our progress through the stages that will culminate in an enlightened state of “loving our neighbors as ourselves.”

We can refer to the upper power as Nature, the Creator, God or whatever suits us.
