    I think what I cannot see, touch physically but I feel from my heart something nonphysical which dictates my many aspects of behaviors and many things that is spirituality. I believe human has spirit and that is the main part of ourselves. Our body is just made up of electron, proton and neutron and those are obviously not spiritual.

    Spirituality consists of the identities we create within ourselves to deal with the enormity of the world in which we find ourselves.

    We are creatures with a great capacity to perceive existence. We see great distance with telescopes and peer into the small world with microscopes. We contemplate existence and our place in it and wonder at the tau of the child. We begin with nothing and throughout our lives we try to fill the emptiness with understanding.

    Spirituality has a different definition based on person values, education, and faith. so it is hard to come with a general concept.
    It is also a matter of experience, culture we are living in. My point is that we need to believe in something, this will make us strong, but the way in which we choose what we believe in is again based of everybody parameters.
    I was born in a christian family and educated and raise this way so this is my higher power.

    I personally never use the word spirituality, but rather something like religion. But I don't really know if they mean the same.

    Spirituality is, for me, a connectedness to a higher power.

    Religion is a word I never use. Mine is a relationship with the living God, who promises to never leave or forsake us. The world has so many religions and terms that confuse. I follow the Bible--God's love letter to humanity. Words like "spirituality" seems so vague and watered down. I do like conversations like this, though, and appreciate that you've written a lens. You're right; everyone feels differently. Thanks for taking time to open a conversation!
