I think the first step of the fundamental human journey of the spirit is to consider whether there might be something - some spirit or being - wiser and more powerful than we are, beyond us yet available to us.

I think the second step of that journey is to decide whether and how to explore and develop one’s perception of, and connection with, that spirit or being.

The next, and continual, step is to decide whether and how to honor and live up to that spirit or being for the gift of life; for lessons learned; for our comforts – and for pain avoided or relieved; for the people, things and experiences which bring us joy; and for our opportunities to serve and grow.
