But if you can't start there...if you have baggage, bring it along and be who you are today. You can meditate. You can pray. You can offer solace to those who need to know they are not alone. You can lend an ear for those who need someone to hear them and eyes for those who need someone to see them. You don't have to be Mother Teresa. You don't have to be the Dali Llama. You don't have to be Mahatma Gandhi. You just have to be you.
The world just needs you. If you can remember even for one minute a day that you are the embodiment of God's love--that you are loving, lovable and loved just as you are, then you are already on your way toward living a spiritual life.
If you try each day to do good; if you try each day to do right; if you are open to learning more about who you are and your place in the world, you can be assured you are living a spiritual life. Add to that any interest you have in exploring spiritual studies of any type, or better yet, all types so that you can discern the Truth that lies within each belief system, then you are living a spiritual life.
If you take the time to talk with children, spend time with the elderly, help your neighbor, open doors or are generous with others in any way, then you are living a spiritual life. Every day that you do any of these, you are increasing your enlightenment quotient. Don't stop. Move forward. Love. Love. and Love some more. Forgive. Release. And Love some more.(c) 2021 SZing, Spiritual Creator. All Rights Reserved. Photographs courtesy of Pixabay.
