I do not define myself as overly religious, but I do consider myself spiritual. I was talking to someone about that the other day. I have my own relationship with God that has nothing to do with the church or any form of organized religion. That works for me and I hope that works for God as well. But I also know that there are things in my life that are spiritual that do not have to do directly with God and I need to incorporate those into my life more. I find them very rejuvenating. They are calming and grounding, which I know I definitely need more of!
I find being in nature very spiritual. Being surrounded by things that are green is so soothing. Being out in nature is not something that I do often but when I do, I very much enjoy it. There are plenty of places around Greensboro where I can experience nature that I do not take advantage of. So many beautiful parks to explore. And we have several greenways for walking here in Greensboro. And I think even just getting out into my own yard and doing some work out there would be good for my soul.
Music is also something that is very spiritual to me. I need to take more time to sit down and listen to music. I mean focus on the music and not just have it playing in the background. It relaxes me and takes me to a place where I feel peaceful. I don't do that often enough. Basically, I want to find more things in my life that ground me and give me peace. And I want to incorporate those things into more of my daily existence. Spirituality comes in all forms, and I want to explore as many as I can.
