I get that we are spiritual beings having a human experience. I’ve thought about it many times. But why? If we are a spark from the source of all things the end game would not be about “returning to the source”.
It’s about the human experience. This is what should take precedence over the spiritual one. We should embrace the layers of suffering that we encounter — those moments that are difficult and challenging — those moments that are fabulous and filled with beauty. Those experiences, those moments create and develop our humanness. Those experiences make us human.
I believe it is about the path we walk through while being human that then gives us our purpose and our reason for being.
Discovering our spiritual path is only the beginning, living our spiritual path within our humanness is our purpose.
