I got up today and walked outside for half and hour; then practiced meditation and helped my mother in the kitchen. All these things, though quite simple, really made me content as well as happy about having this life and living it in a certain way as I desire. And that is what makes me spiritually happy.
Spirituality is quite a deep concept and needs to be dealt with sensitivity. What do you tell when someone asks you if you believe in yourself or things around you or not? What are your views on connectedness and law of gravitation?
Well, being spiritually content and happy is something that comes from within one's conscience. You may or may not be able to tell others about it; but you will experience calmness and euphoria within yourself.
What makes me spiritually happy everyday is
- practicing meditation: feeling that I have something deeper connected to my being,
- trying to listen to my inner feelings and also observe what others intend to say
- trying to be more and more mindful; be present and aware of the moment rather than being stuck in the past.
These are some of the things which need to be developed bit by bit and not immediately; which can help us carry our emotions in a decent way without harming others and ourselves. Being spiritual is like nurturing your garden named Soul piece by piece, patiently.
