I stated all of the above, but also believe that spirituality can also be hard work!!!

It is not always easy to practise what we preach so to speak, with the stresses of mordern living...

We can but try!

Blessed Be

i chose a learning process as i have very mixed feelings about spirituality and what it means to and for me right now xx

I chose other as I look at spirituality as a journey of discovery. One that opens you up to learn more about yourself and all that is around you.

I couldn't vote?????
I not sure if I am spiritual, but it's the closest I can get to my beliefs.
I would have voted 'other' btw.
I live my beliefs and I enjoy discussions with other likeminded folk.
It is also a learning which never stops.
I am completely open to it.
And like Helen said it is hard work.

wonder why you couldn't vote???

Cos I'm special?

I wasnt sure how to vote either.. but i think its a way of life i dont think if you are material that it goes well with spiritual.
I love nature in the woods in the hedge and out in open spaces .Think if you follow the seasons and the wheel of the year that helps towards being spiritual.I love to gather things acorns and conkers and little oak apples etc i am like a squirrel .i think we all celebrate things different though ..I sometimes think you have to change your way of life to some extent and life can be very difficult now to be overly spiritual.I am not a spiritual type who sits in meditation chanting or going on astral journeys i am more earth bound where my greatest pleasure is to be out ..

The Goddess is everything to me, in all of her aspects!

I couldn't vote But to me it would be other.
I think of Spirituality as a doorway opening up so many new ideas to put into practice.
Nothing feels forced on me, I choose what i am comfortable with.
I think the biggest thing i have found is life is such a small part of living.
Every day problems even the biggest are no more than a hiccup if you can find yourself.
If you are well in what you believe, and able to accept obstacles as learning curves in life, living is the experience to cherish. Hope this is ok.

That was very well put Free!
Excellent!
I agree with all you say

Thank you Free, and sorry you couldnt vote will have to check on that as mia couldnt vote either....

I completely agree with the way you have described spirituality and what it means - thanks


EDIT: could Free and mia try to vote as think I have solved the problem!

Yes !!!!!!!!!! Thank you. The vote is done. xx

That is great thank you good to know it is working again

I think spirituality is living your own truth (so a way of life) I think it's about seeing the beauty in all of life, even, (and perhaps especially) in the hardships, (so I also think it is a learning experience. ) To me it is also about love and being sensitive to others and their feelings, being open, giving, unblinkered and honest.

Forgot to add my 'other' was Freedom

I voted a way of life and a learning experience.

seems we all think along the same lines

Spirituality
isn't about a religion. It's about faith. It's believing that there IS
something out there. Whatever your specific details are is irrelevant
to it. That you have faith that somethings out there and that this
isn't all just happenstance.

Spirituality to me, is loving everyone and everything unconditionally (although sometimes it can be hard). Also I think it is a belief that there is more than just what we see.
Just my opinion.

Bright blessings.

I had to state Other - something in connection with self discovery, and healing and living to one's fullest potential.

Hello

I so like what Seafarer said.

It is a HUGE part of healing. For me it has given me access to some of the BEST healer's at me Church . If it was not for a reading by a Tarot reader I would not have and a Spirital Path to find there. Too Healing in that I was GUIDED to a Spiritual site....and in an odd way round to this site.

Oh huge on self discovery but maybe too deeper self learning and self confidence and self image really. If one can walk among other's with head held high and shoulder back but not projecting in EGO of being better than another we are on good footings.

In Seafarers case one is on calm oceans with one's jouney if only on the Spiritual Path for now. The MIND (SOUL) can take us on any journey we wish to travel on, opening to that is releaseing fear's is all and going for the GUSTO. LIFE.

YES always fullest potential but FEAR sadly often holds so many back......


SMILES !

To me spirituality is realizing there is simply more then what is in front of us. It is going deep within to find the real YOU the real being inside of the clothing we call a body. It is opening up of ones MIND and allowing the cosmic consciousness of the universe to visit and us to remember we visit it nightly. It is no longer requiring the trappings of humanity and seeing that being naked in a field of flowers or on a bed of colored fall leaves is much more rewarding. It is realizing you are the same as a rock or a blade of grass yet just DNA stranded differently for a moment in time.
Spirituality is LOVE of oneself and others. It is the BIG picture...3, 4 and 5th dimensional.

The meaning of spirituality differs from an individual to individual. Many individuals feel  the spiritual power with yoga, prayers and meditation. On the other hand some individuals believe to be in spiritual power by visiting religious places like mosque , temple or church. But there is an another exceptional spiritual power in this world which is termed as Trivedi Effect. It is the energy transmissions of the thought process of spiritual guru Mahendra Trivedi.

When we were young we saw so much
Over time it all left us as we grew up
And now we are trying to find the lost
