The author of "Growth" (pages 28-30) begins to see the things she can leave out as she grows spiritually—"when I don't say the cross word, when I don't answer sarcastically." She writes that leaving out people-pleasing activities, or the "cute, funny, phony me my civilian friends used to know," allows her more time to be helpful to others, to sit and listen, or to do the things she really wants to do. For you or members of your group, what behaviors did you begin to leave out after you realized they were getting in the way of your spiritual growth?
