Many people say I am not religious but spiritual. What does this mean and what does spirituality mean to you? Is it a sense that there is something greater than yourself?
Pierre Teilhard De Chardin said “We are not human beings having a spiritual experience. We are spiritual beings having a human experience.”
For some people reflecting on the past and looking to the future can be spiritual. For others it is a sense of connection with a friend or partner or can be a formal activity such as praying.
Maybe it is the feeling when you are in nature or surrounded by animals that are so amazing. You admire the beauty of a horse or intricate pattern of a leaf or flower blossom.
Spirituality may be the feeling you get when sharing a talent such as singing or playing music or a sense of achievement in making something.
Spirituality means so many different things to people. Take the opportunity to consider, would you say you are spiritual or admire something that is?
