Practice?

As a seeker I am on a non-traditional path, away from the confines of traditional religion.

Without the support of community or a leader to guide my journey of ritual and thought, I'm on my own to define what it means to have a spiritual practice. So, when I drew this card this morning, it prompted me to ask - what IS my spiritual practice?

AND...

What are my rituals? Do I have rituals? Do I think about my life in terms of a spiritual practice? What does spirituality mean to me? What is my spiritual path? How do I define that path? What keeps me on the path of love? What do I believe? What support do I have from other like-minded individuals? How important is that community for bouncing ideas around and keeping my practice honest? What is my practice?

It's time to stop taking my beliefs, my connection to the universe, and my desire to love and share love for granted. What more can I learn about hope and faith? I no longer want to live without a solid understanding of my spiritual direction. I believe I need a more disciplined approach.

Therefore, my plan is to answer these questions in the coming New Year.

Does any of this resonate with you?
