In this episode, our conversation centers on preference and how it could possibly indicate resistance to certain emotions and experiences. An emailed question prompts the discussion, inviting us to reflect on the functionality, or lack thereof, of our preferences. From preferring correct fuel for a car, to children preferring play over chores, our choices can depict a snapshot of our emotional and spiritual maturity.

We delve deeper into the concept of preference pointing out how it can be tied to our desires, feelings, and wants. How the choices we make, particularly those that lean towards immediate gratification, reveal the scope of our vision and emotional maturity. Indeed, with maturation comes the ability to see beyond immediate impulses and consider long-term impacts, leading to healthier decisions and lifestyle choices.

In this light, we address how our reactions, tantrums, and misplaced anger result from moments of minimized perspective and maturity. These episodes of frustration not only narrow our spirits but can indirectly harm our relationships with ourselves and others. Moreover, these instances highlight the need for us to truly know ourselves, not just intellectually, but also experientially.

Highlighting the long-term consequences of our short-term choices, this discussion invites a contemplation on the effects of self-destructive habits, the benefits of spiritual growth, and holistic maturation. From our disposition to overindulgence in junk food to expressing our disapproval vocally, this episode encourages us to take account of our daily actions. We are called to recognize the degree to which these actions impact our bodies and minds, thereby affecting the relationship with our selves.

Addressing the question of preference, this episode aims to orient our thoughts and emotions towards self-love, spiritual maturation, and a greater understanding of ourselves. As we come to terms with the possibility of a future iteration of ourselves, we are prompted to live in a manner that fosters self-love, respect, acceptance, and trust. It is in learning to cease betrayal of ourselves that we can evolve spiritually and emotionally, for a healthier and happier existence.
