What is Being Spiritual?

Author Unknown

Being spiritual is...

--Taking conscious responsibility for your own life, and not blaming others for your problems.

--Looking at problems as lessons; perhaps a long series of lives and lessons.

--Staying conscious with the honest decision to learn and grow.

--Believing we are what we think we are and knowing we can change ourselves by changing our thinking.

--Feeling we can change the world by changing ourselves first; not trying to change others.

--Searching for strength from the universe by going inside and not looking on the outside.

--Choosing our own path rather than following others.

--Recognizing that love does not have to have conditions attached.

--Honoring others' rights to their own path.

--Realizing that now is all we have, since yesterday is just a thought and so is tomorrow.

--Being interested in only owning ourself rather than things.

--Seeing all of the joy in life rather than the pain.

--Loving and knowing ourself in order to better know and love others.

--Being curious about extra sensory perception and all it implies.

--Looking at others as not better than or less.

--Is not based on guilt, anger, fear or hurt, but is a journey toward the love that is God and Universe.
