To be spiritual is simply to be aware of one’s purpose and meaning; not necessarily to be better or pious or aloof from common living, but to be natural, constructive, giving, loving, sharing, warm, peaceful, purposeful, growing, appreciative, and totally aware of Earth’s sacred life and natural beauty.
To be spiritual is to have a healthy respect for the sacredness of life and the sacredness of the cycles, balances, and perpetuity of life so destined by God’s guiding Great Spirit. To be spiritual is to have a respect for the sacredness of God’s universal energy; energy that is so destined by God’s creations within and of Himself.
To be spiritual certainly is to be appreciative of a God-given talent, to use that talent for good, and to hone that talent to the highest. To be spiritual, certainly, is to be humbled by one’s fortunes as well as one’s pain and misfortunes, to be humbled by one’s human frailty as well as oneself as an ephemeral being or as God’s earthly flower in bloom.
To be spiritual is to give unselfishly of oneself for the welfare, growth, and happiness of others, especially for the nourishment of the young and the well being of the old.
To be spiritual, surely, is to be totally and constantly aware of and thankful for God’s existence and presence around and within us from day to day and in every way.
