"I'm Spritual"

I like words, so naturally I enjoy sensitivity towards semantics. Today I heard myself answer the classic, "Are you religous," question with the now seemingly standard answer, "No, but I'm spiritual." Tonight in the shower I couldn't help but question my answer. Sure, semantically it's true, but is it true? Does my life scream at the top of it's trachea, I'm Spritual! I'm in Love with a Spiritual Being also called Love! I'm forever Alive! What am I screaming? We're all saying something, do we atleast agree with that? Ok, good... so what are you saying?

I'm afraid that I'm still saying to those that I don't talk to much, I'm a nice guy that goes to church and is "religious", and I love Teresa, and family, and volleyball, and life, and yeah, uh, that's all good. In other words, blah, blah, blah, blah. And why doesn't my life influence anyone? Hmmmmmmmmmmm. How do I communicate what my heart is screaming at me? Oh, yeah, good idea, Live it. Cool. Ok, how do I do that. Oh this isn't simply theoretical, topical conversation material, no Teddy, this is my life, come on, how do I live? Well! Satisfied! Open Hearted! Passionately! Provoking Love! I don't know!!!!!!!!!

I hope your doing welll with all this, I'm still working on the words, hoping I'll figure out the application aspect along the way. We'll see. I'll let you know....
