An examination of this "continual, upward spiral" will reveal that it is a never-ending "round." By utilizing the proper perspective and motivations to move forward; improve and progress - we become like God and emulate Him in His course. We know that we have perfected a principle when it can be shared in "consecrated empathy" and "service;" (LOVE/CHARITY) with another. We have perfected that thing. Then it is on to the next, according to God's wisdom. It should be noted that it is foolish to compare our progression with someone else because we aren't given the same "sequence, gifts, or circumstances." Our progression is "custom tailored" to who we are and what our "wholeness and completion" entails. It is as if we are given a puzzle of the very same picture; however, the pieces are not cut the same; they aren't interchangeable and we have to do it for ourselves. The "combination" and the "sequence," (spatial and temporal dimensions) are different.
Please note that in the following graphic, Intellectual refers to MIND and Emotional refers to HEART - thought and feeling. It shows the comparison of opposites. It is my hope that you will benefit from the realization of introspection, where you are and what needs attention.
