It gives a feeling of security, and an outlet for my compulsion to contribute (I heard tonight that helping others is one method of procrastination, and perhaps there is some truth in that).

I can truthfully answer that question in almost any way - it just depends what sort of a definition one gives to the term spirituality.

When I " 'fess up" to all the things that my "looking good" doesn't want known, ahead of time, so there is nothing to pretend and nothing to hide, and I can be fully relaxed and confident when I speak.  (No BS)

Awareness.

Having been through a few things and discovered my limits are a bit further than I thought.

Having discovered some new contexts that give me a very different set of views of existence past, and possible futures.

Having experienced love and hardship, I have a compassion and empathy others that comes only with experience, and cannot even be guessed at by youth.

I'm a bit past playing roles, I am just me.  A peculiar collection of habits, thoughts, and possibilities.

I can be just about everything one can imagine from time to time, arrogant, angry, petulant, loving, patient, impatient, ...., as can most of us, and at my best I am a stand for the greatness in everyone, for freedom, prosperity and individual creativity,and for societal level systems that support and empower all individuals in their personal exploration of their own creative potential.

Natural history.

The evolution  of matter, stars, planets, life, culture, language, awareness, possibility.

A history of how we got to be what we are, and an exploration of our infinite capacity to be creative.

Oh yes !!!

So incredibly fortunate.

I am alive.
I have lived over half a century.
I have gone from a childhood poverty, to living in one of the most beautiful places on the planet, with the company of a beautiful woman whom I love more than I ever dreamed possible.   I have flown aircraft, driven cars faster than most people ever dream of, done so many many things that as a kid I dreamed of, but never considered I would ever do.

I have come to understand so much about our natural world, about myself, about the nature of possibility, about the possibility of being human - much more than I ever dreamed possible.  And in coming so far, I see ahead an infinite amount yet to be learned and explored.

I am certain that it is possible to extend human lifespans indefinitely, and I am not at all certain that I will manage to get that possibility for myself, and maybe I will.
Maybe I really will get to experience an indefinite life of freedom, abundance, love, prosperity and connection.  Maybe I will be able to create that possibility for every person.

I am not frightened by the possibility of dying tomorrow - I'd rather not, and if it happens it happens.

When I think of the improbability of a me coming into existence, I feel so profoundly fortunate.

A spring day.
Still plenty of evidence of last winter's snows about, and there is bright sun, with the promise of more sun than snow in the coming months.

Trust.

Trust yourself enough to love yourself, to listen to your own intuitions.

Trust your self enough to make your own choices, in the face of the disagreement of others, or the censure of culture, or the law - provided you are confident you are acting for the greater benefit of all.

Trust others enough to love them, trust them enough to tell them your truth, trust them enough to listen to their truth.

Trust in your own infinite powers of undertanding, of creativity, of compassion, of tollerance.

Sometimes some people will break your trust, and most people, most of the time, will honour it, and the community you build from your trust will be your greatest support in situations you could never have imagined.
