When friends choose celibacy together but experience the path differently

My closest friend and I both took vows of celibacy within our spiritual community, but she seems to be thriving in ways I'm not and I find myself envious of her certainty while also feeling guilty for struggling when this is supposed to be a sacred choice we're walking together.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two people committed to the same spiritual discipline are discovering that identical choices can lead to vastly different inner experiences.
