Some have been wondering if all people need to go through the Dark Night. The answer is yes, except...
Some people have been spared lives of sin and internal corruption. Many of the child saints, whom I have noted on this blog, were perfected early on in childhood and reached the Illuminative State early on.
Some people who are martyrs were unified with Christ in His Passion through their martyrdom.
That would be a quick, but painful way, to perfection.
I shall return to the Dark Night discussion on Thursday.
