Self-Understanding Is Not Easy, but It Is an Ultimate Goal

My mother emailed the following quote last year. I really like it, since it addresses not only one of my core beliefs but also the fact that self-awareness is not easy:

Make it thy business to know thyself, which is the most difficult lesson in the world.

Our belief that we are gods and children of the Most High God means, in a very practical way, that knowing and "sanctifying" ourselves is an important part of knowing God.
