There are certain books that I have found, over the years, that I want to read over and over again because I find that in reading them my life changes. One of those is “Man’s Search for Meaning” by Viktor Frankl written in 1962. Perhaps you’ve read it. I hope so because it is an incredibly impactful book. Each time I read it, I find some new kernel of truth that causes me to reflect on my own life.
There are things, habits and people in our lives that become so dear to us that sometimes we don’t notice when they’re not working out quite in the way they were supposed to.
December is full of moments that make us reflect on our spiritual life. Many different religions hold important festivities throughout the month, marked by rituals that have endured for hundreds or even thousands of years.
At one point or another, once we have known a person long enough, the topic of religion or spirituality comes up. It’s even more frequent when you work in the Holistic circle, as I do. It is usually implied that someone who reaches balance, or peace, possesses a defined set of beliefs that allows them to live in balance, according to a set of traditions. However, particularly in this day and age where there is so much more information available, and more options are open, it has become more and more frequent to meet people who have come to construct their individual and extremely personal set of beliefs; their unique spiritual system.
Finding a path seems so easy for some; yet, it never is. What we see on the surface is the result of a long chain of decisions and events, spiced up with clear vision, determination and many other ingredients.
During our free time most of us like to engage in specific activities: some of us read fiction, magazines or certain blogs; or maybe we like to watch tv or go to the movies. Perhaps our favorite leisure activity is getting together with friends for a meal and/or drinks, while we discuss what each of us has been doing for the past few days or weeks.
Beauty has two aspects: the physical, and the spiritual. In today’s world, we tend to mistake an aesthetically pleasant shape with real and meaningful beauty. Of course, there is nothing wrong with pleasurable aesthetics – as long as they feed our spirits and intellects. This is what the most popular, ‘mainstream’ current notions of beauty get wrong.
