Spirituality As A Way Of Life

Daily writing prompt
How important is spirituality in your life?

I’m not a mutually exclusive kind of person, so for me there is no separation between mind, body and spirit. The soul realm is as real as it gets to a guy like me. As I moved through this journey of life, I have come to find the sacred in everything, even in the mundane. I look for the extraordinary in the ordinary, and watch out for the signs and synchronicities that light my way. There many paths to experience God(ess)s, Creator, Higher Self, Universe, the Tao- whatever semantics you choose to identify with. Sitting out in Nature with the animals, alone in the woods is where I feel most connected to Spirit. But I do get that feeling wherever I go. Sometimes, with humans- it’s in the eye of a newborn or even cloaked in disguise of a grown adult’s emotional reactions. There is so much beauty in our world, if only our eyes are open to it. And the dark is part of spirituality too. Taking the fight out of things and finding ways to co-exist peacefully with others is a key dynamic along my spiritual path. Seek first to understand, then be understood. I try to see beyond forms into the formless realm of souls and look for the inner royalty. When I forget, I remember.
