Sticking to priorities

Originally appeared on spirituality.com

We've all had to establish priorities of one kind or another. In my case, they’ve ranged from training for varsity basketball during high-school summers to saving the environment during my junior year in college.

But as I’ve thought about my priorities more deeply, I’ve realized that what I’ve wanted all along is to experience more of my inherent worth—to have a feeling of purpose and wholeness. What I’ve been after is spiritual—more satisfaction, peace and well-being.

For me, this means developing my relationship with God, divine Spirit—making spirituality my ultimate priority. And one way to do this is to develop qualities that will keep me thinking about life in spiritual terms.
