We don’t all take the same classes in Earth School (although I do believe that some coursework, like Patience, is a requisite for all students) and we develop a different set of skills, talents and abilities in our coursework and internships.
Our Earth School homework gives us opportunity, through direct experience, to connect with and apply our spiritual understanding to the people and situations that we encounter on our path. By sharing our Earth School homework we mentor each other in the development of our potential.
It is often the hardest courses that teach us the most. Life sometimes gives pop quizzes.
