Are you living a spiritual way?

Good question as many may claim most don't. 

But what do we believe is a spiritual way? 

Most believe for sure you have to be out of this world. Also many claim you have to do yoga and some sort of meditation. Some may also say you have to change the way you eat and what you eat. 

Well, can someone who lives a religion also live a spiritual way? Most will say not and less wonder why. 

Many believe being spiritual means giving up your job and go to a silent place or hide in the nature. Many believe that a spiritual person avoids technic and modern things we use and share in common life.  

Some believe that as a spiritual person you will only talk about this way of being and can only talk in words like- energy- and -flow-. 

Surprisingly you don't have to hide in a cave to become spiritual. Nor do you need to change your job or way of eating, though many will do in the end. 

Why, because most of us will discover that the old way does not fit into the new way and understanding of the world as they become aware of the consequences and because you start living again more with your heart and soul. 

Some shadows will fade and make your view clearer and that makes people change their live as they see what they want and what they believed. 

Yes, meditation and yoga and things like this can help, but only if you do them without pressing yourself. As long you just start, do and practice you will grow and find new pictures of yourself and also you will be more easy to discover what people made you believe, even if it was wrong. As we are surrounded by many lies and misunderstandings, there are much we have to tear down. 

But yes most of us are afraid to start because it would or could hurt and I tell you yes it will do as looking on your own truth is many times not flattering. 

We are all human and so we do mistakes and get things wrong. 

Discover this and you can start.

Because waiting for something to happen to you for the change you believe should be, well is a waste of time and waiting for others to forgive you also. But you can forgive yourself and search by yourself.

One of the challenges are to find the right tools. Well, they seem so many on the market. How you know which is right and wrong. You don't. You have to feel it as it can be that non tool on your way is yours.  

But don't worry, start trying and be critical and watch yourself. Pretty sure after a while you will know if the tool in your hand is the one to work with a longer time, till the next comes. 

You already did try so many and never found the right one? Well, have you listen already to yourself? Do you use negative words and negotiations? Do you have some doubt and goals you maybe believe those are yours. Because some things are just blinding things as we have learned to believe that we need them. Listen and question then again yourself and be true no matter how much disturbing and hurting it can be. The answer is often not really a surprise but we had hoped, hoped against better knowing that this goal we strive for is the right one, the true one. 

Let me tell you a secret. I found a lot of these and am more unknown about an exact goal, but less unsure as I know more and better what matters. 

Actually we all know what matters deep inside but we have learned to ignore. 

What's then so hard to change the way we live? It can't be only the fear of hurting. 

It is more then that, you're absolutely right. It's the question of- what if I fail?

Good news.... you can't fail. But you can fall down many times. Start again many times. Change your point of view many times. You will peel your life and soul and build up a new and will peel again till you understood that taking away all you don't need is all you belong and till you understood that being flexible is the strong tree inside you when a storm will come. 

But being spiritual does never mean to be happy all the time, though some say happiness is the way. 

Understanding that life is a school from beginning to end and this will keep things low and more easy in the right direction. 

Happiness is to see and enjoy little things as bigger one. Is to enjoy when you had a good working day or the luck of getting the bus. The more you live that way, the more easy you will find it to enjoy life and you can react faster and deeper and as the day may begin with being to late on the way, you will then remember that rushing will just make you arrive later but doing as you used to -just a bit faster- only a bit and you'll be in time.Very much my own experience. I have actually given up running after a bus, a tram or a underground. It always comes the next one and you will always reach your destination and no one will die because you maybe will be late and nothing in life is that important to rush and rush and rush and stress yourself up. Nothing. And best of all- you are all in your right time- so being to late is impossible. That alone is a challenge and also those thing with the words and what you think. And remember it is o.k. if you did it again the old way. Try next time. It is o.k. that you stopped going to gym and doing yoga too. You will start again when the time is right. Just let it be those pushing yourself as you will never really enjoy this. There is always this moment you just start, but forget waiting for the right moment as you start focussing on it and missing the best possibility and the crying loud out of your own body. 

Oh yes this all can take many years. But maybe not for you as no one can tell you how long it will take as it always is a life long journey. It never ends. But that is good. 

But then you will reach the point like me. No path is your path. You can start searching on other paths and ways but in the end you have to go your own, very own one. 

This is actually quite easy as I am not much thinking about that but the challenge is to trust. To trust in your own path. No matter what other people say. No matter what your mother thinks and your brothers remain. Trust. Trust is the biggest thing as you have to face your inner fears and learned demons. As you have to look into your own shadows and just go forward. Sure living in the now is much helping and all the practice with meditation, yoga and doing my sport, and also being aware of my language and the use of it. What does help me in keeping my trust? It is the experience of that when I let go and when I believe and when it then was true to what I really want- it all came the way which was best for me, even known that it sometimes did not look like this in the beginning. I am aware after all, that every step I went was right and everything comes as long on my way until I have learned. And learning to trust in your own way is what gives me and gave me many times situation I wondered what happened and then I realized it has to be that way as I did let it happen. If people where mean to me it showed me where I stood and what I did or did not and had to change or just to remember of doing. They may still have a problem with me but it is their problem. This has nothing to do with me. All I have to do is think why it touched me so much and let me felt unhappy, uneasy or mad. At least then, when I found out, I started - I always start changing the facts and catching the missing link. 

So all this sound very much like everyone can do.

Which leads us back to our question. How to become a spiritual human? 

Well... YOU ARE A SPIRITUAL HUMAN. It's just we have all our ways, our times and no one is better or worse then the others. Sure some of us are blinded very hard and some less. Some of us are very far away of being aware of living a happy live is something they could build up instead of a life in fear and with negative power. This may be disturbing for many as we never believe dictators or murders can be spiritual but all have a soul no matter how dark, how far way from love and the sun. That also means that no one really is a victim and this is a truth which leads us to the question, why love people to be victims and let others tell them how to be? It's fear. Fear we learn and wrong choices we did and we fear we have to pay. Well, we always have to pay. The pice is happiness, true happiness. But some may think money and false hope is more worth. Well, then - it's their way but never has to be yours, though I like money to, but do I need it- no. 

Courage is all you need and everyone has it laying inside. It only needs trust in you- yourself instead of believing. Believing means using words, who are so little to make things of. Trust is a feeling and the energy, the flow who will make you do the step. Or with others words, this is what makes you change your life. Simple trust. 

Oh it is so complicated- not.

Enough thoughts for today.. as always
