STEP OVER THE OBSTACLES

Mani Irani

 
It's good to remember life isn't a make it or break it affair; while taking the deep happiness a union of two beings in love can bring, one should not close one's eyes to the constant little demands marriage is bound to make.

When understood in that right give and take it will bring you ever closer together and to Him. So because Baba is happy and has approved of your marriage it does not mean everything will be blankly smooth, or that there can never be problems and no hurts.

Baba does not sweep our paths for us, He teaches us to step over the obstacles to higher giving and loving.
