I believe in spirit.
It’s as natural as our body, mind, and social relationships.
It’s a natural force like magnetism, electricity, and gravity.
The natural force of spirit makes us alive.
When we have spirit, we’re alive.
When we don’t, we’re dead.
Our spirit is the agent of our life.
It animates our body.
It drives our physical instincts
that compel us to do what we
need to keep living: Eat. Drink. Play.
Protect ourselves. Have sex. Provide
for ourselves. Mate and nurture our young.
Our emotions are our spirit’s responses to stimuli.
Our moods are extended emotions.
Our spirit animates our mind.
No spirit, no living, learning, imaging, problem-solving
mind.
Our spirit animates our social relationships.
No spirit, no interactions with others, no family, no
friends, no lovers, no children.
No spirit, no esprit de corps, team spirit, school spirit,
no Lady Liberty or Uncle Sam.
More than the difference between being dead or alive,
our spirit is the difference between merely existing or
truly living.
No spirit, no life. No character or reputation.
Our spirit directs us to fulfill the life-affirming desires
of our heart. That’s our destiny.
