Spirituality seems like the new fad these days. Veganism, yoga, crystals, green smoothies — I’m sorry to burst your bubble but these things doesn’t make one “spiritual”.
It seems as though “spirituality” itself has become another “religion”. There is no right or wrong way of being spiritual. Spirituality is being real to yourself and to others. Spirituality is being aware of your true essence. It’s the undoing of all your belief systems and the becoming of who you truly are before they taught you how to live your life “their” way.
Spirituality is simply authenticity. It’s a way of life and there are many different tools and paths to this. So many people are so hard on themselves because they want to be part of this “spiritual/new age” thing and they do all sorts of things that they think is considered “spiritual”. Stop seeking outside. Stop LOOKING outside. All the answers you seek are within you. It’s not in a green smoothie or a book. Stop with the madness and don’t buy into what you think looks and is supposedly “spiritual”. There is no such thing. Just be kind, have a big heart, get real.
Our paths are all unique, therefore your life won’t be just like anyone else’s. It isn’t supposed to look just like anyone else’s.
Listen to your heart. Look within you. Hear out what’s seeking your attention. Become aware. Become alive.
Spirituality is awareness, consciousness, compassion, forgiveness, grace, passion, love. It also includes the darkness, hatred, jealousy, anger, bitterness. It’s all part of it. Spirituality is life. It doesn’t exclude. It only transmutes everything into love. The secret is to stay in harmony with yourself.
Spirituality is a lesson of love. All lessons are lessons on love. Life itself is “spirituality”. Stay true to yourself. Love all that you are, dark and light. Your essence will surely shine through regardless of what you eat, say, and do.
LOVE.
