The journey to interior freedom is a long and never-ending journey. We never arrive. The moment we think that we have everything figured out and we safely use categories, is a sign that we are off-course.
It doesn't mean, though, that we don't have principles or convictions. Nay, it means that we are open to look at our values and see shades of egoism and self-centeredness in them. It is to admit that our motivations are never perfectly pure.
Left to ourselves, our criteria of judgment are always relative.
And so we need the light of Someone higher than ourselves. I call this Someone God, others might use another name.
Our choices are a constant search and dialogue. And so the journey goes on and on.
