Day 10: Be closer to my own spirituality

November 10th: Be closer to my own spirituality.

Ooof.  This is a tough one.  I have a desire to be more okay with spirituality.  I believe in something larger then me….I’m not sure about anything else though.  I respect that everyone feels differently on this subject and I don’t have any desire to change anyones mind or view at all.  I spend time being grateful every day, sometimes it takes the form of meditation, other times its even more informal.

I was raised in the Catholic church.  I appreciate the structure and the practice of mass.  I like the singing.  What I didn’t like was the tone of some of the sermons and the beliefs….yeah that parts kind of a big deal.  Lexi and I say our “Take a minutes” every night where I say “Lets take a minute to send some love to Gramma Sandy and Papa Greg and Grandma and Grandpa and GG and Gramma Janice and Papa and Uncle Mark and Becca and Maddie and Ed and new baby Abby and Uncle Jay and all the people we love in heaven.”  I’m not sure how I’m going to explain this when she starts asking questions.  I know that I find some peace in our “Take a minutes” and really I don’t think it much matters who exactly we’re taking a minute to; be it God, the unvierse or Kate Spade.

I do know that I’d like to be closer to a place of spiritual oneness.  I’m not sure how that looks or what it entails but I’m hoping that in the scheme or life I can get closer.

    I love the idea of "take a minutes!"

    It's always smart to just take a minute. I have a giveaway on my blog. To get to it click on the WHAT AM I? GIVEAWAY picture in one of the right sidebars. theprovidentwoman.com

    All you have to do is ask... it's that simple. Have faith and just ask.
