The Unique Spiritual Path

So as I was driving to work the other morning I had an epiphany.  I always struggle describing my spiritual calling.  None of the religions really describe what I believe.  Eclectic Wiccan was the closest I could get but really I don't feel that it is accurate.  So I decided I didn't need a Label, but still it nagged at me.  Why was my path so unique?

This got me to thinking, in reality we all view out spiritual journey through our personal experience. Whether we sit in pews or meet in groves, each of us interprets the teachings of the elders in our own way.  In actuality we create our own Spiritual Path based on what we experience along our journey. We may Pray, recite Affirmations, or cast Spells but the intentions are the same.

There is really only one Spiritual Path, no matter what you call it, its a personal connection to something Other.  It is unique to the individual and yet it is the same.  We are all connected in our Beliefs no matter what they are.  Simply by believing there is something other then us out there is enough to start our Awareness, enough to Awaken a dormant piece that reaches for Answers hidden in the ether.  God, Goddess, the Divine, Spirit, Universe, Source, the names are irrelevant.  Its the searching, the questioning, the conviction that there is more that really matters.

Don't let the teachings of others dictate to you, your Truth is absolutely yours, and no others.  Each person is their Spiritual Path, unique just like you.  Embrace who you are, take what you need from the teachings of others, and follow your own Journey proud of the Uniqueness that is completely you.
