A solid spiritual life is within everyone's reach . . . it's not that complicated. Getting a life of any kind is hard enough in a world that has us going around in circles -- from the stresses of our workplace to the demands of home and back again tomorrow. Getting a spiritual life can seem like a luxury to be put off to another, quieter time. Robert Wicks, however, believes that the search for a spiritual life begins not in some exotic, unreachable place, but right where we are -- in the midst of all the craziness. It starts within our busy, stressed-out human hearts, not in some other "more spiritual" place. The more we are able, therefore, to be our true selves, the more successful we will be in developing a spirituality that will be real and satisfying. Here's solid, common sense advice on how to get a spiritual life -- no matter how busy your day.
