Whether we realise it or not we are all firmly planted on a spiritual path. The paths are varied, unique and as individual as our personalities. Our paths are experienced through our feelings, all of which, painful and pleasant, add to the great treasure store-house of our emotional experiences.
All experiences are valid.
There are those who think that life has no meaning or purpose, that we are born, live a short or long life, and die. That's all there is, there's nothing more, finito. It must have been a cosmic accident, haphazard and without rhyme or reason. Well, all life has a spontaneity but there is a discernible pattern and a mathematical precision in the development of a flower, the movement of the stars and the growth of a baby into adulthood. There is an awesome, creative intelligence operating throughout the Universe.
