Finding Spirituality Monday March 24, 2014 How many times does life throw us a curve ball and the first thing we say is some variant of: “How come? Why me? I’m a spiritual person, aren’t I, so how come my business failed? How come my relationship failed?” Oftentimes, we approach our day as a series of tasks to complete: wake up, go to work, do whatever we need to do to get on with our lives. If we complete these tasks, we are happy and feel productive; if we don’t because some obstacle gets in our way, we are left feeling dissatisfied. Abraham, from the Bible, approached his day differently. Every time he met with aggression, every time he met with people that sought to do him harm, every time he ran up against a wall, he would say, “I accept this situation for what it is, and instead of letting it victimize me, I will transform it into something positive.” Abraham lived to find the spirituality in each day, in each trial, in each frustration that he faced. We are not Abraham, but we can and should follow his example.
