#F4Thought #142 - Spirituality ~ In general, it includes a sense of connection to something bigger than ourselves, and it typically involves a search for meaning in life. |
Last week the posts all
about initiative really made think. Certainly, in hard times it is so
important we use our initiative to be resourceful even if the way we
are living has changed.
Spotlight Post #141 by May More
The posts were quite
varied and I enjoyed reading them all. One that really stood out for
me was - The initiatives of #noEroticon - by Marie Rebel. The yearly
Erotic conference – Eroticon – was cancelled due to concerns
about the virus. However for those with long journeys the news came
too late and they arrived in Camden. What to do? They showed
initiative and put on a mini conference where a few of them delivered
their speeches/workshops as normal. Over to the post...
“On Friday evening I
learned that we would have a mini conference — a #noEroticon of you
like — where Haiku and Anna Sky would deliver their sessions, and
Eye invited me to do mine too. I only had to think about it for a
minute, and said yes, I would be there. I loved this initiative of
Eye, and definitely wanted to be part of it, especially as I have
seen the disappointment around me of people who only heard on Friday
that the conference was cancelled.” READ MORE...
Prompt #142 Spirituality
This weeks prompt was
once again suggested by Liz Black. Floss and I feel it is rather
timely given current global events.
The meaning of the term Spirituality has changed
over time but i think this definition - I found on line - works quite well.
Spirituality is a broad concept with room for many
perspectives. In general, it includes a sense of connection to
something bigger than ourselves, and it typically involves a search
for meaning in life. As such, it is a universal human experience,
something that touches us all.
Personally, I think it is a very individual idea which can differ widely from person to person. So, we want to know
what spirituality means to you. Here are a few questions to get you
thinking...

Has your view of spirituality changed over the years?
Is spirituality linked to your mental & physical well being?
In times of need do you have faith? What does that entail?
I asked Floss... Do you
blaspheme or is that step too far for you?
Floss says … I do
blaspheme, but not with malicious intent and I don’t mean to cause
any disrespect. With that in mind I would be mindful of blaspheming
in front of people who I knew were actively involved in their
religion. I think religion can be a wonderful thing for some folks &
I myself have found comfort in bible verses before and I’m a big
fan of Jesus. Blaspheming is really just a bad habit, one that is
reinforced by not really knowing anyone in real life who finds it
offensive when they hear me do it.
