Yes, we are definitely capable of becoming spiritual, since our life experiences are our own, it's something we can build on through understanding. As a child I took care of others and let them decide how my life would go, but I'm not a child anymore.
It's okay to live our own lives, 'to thine own self be true' definitely applies here; it has taken a long time to find out what my own truth is.
Thanks Randy. Yes, everything that happens to us, are for us to learn, to come through stronger.
Our lives are predetermined long before we're born, we're born into the life we get, the family we're with is also a prerequisite of that.
It is up to each of us to understand our lives, and live our lives accordingly. The more open we are to spirituality and its teachings, the more our lives will change positively.
Although our lives are predetermined and fated before we live our physical lives, we have a certain freedom to change what we have, once we're here.
Thanks Tim. Yes, the problem is that no everyone understands their soul, or are aware of the wisdom of their souls, but it is something we can all have access to.
Instead, the human condition lends itself to earthly experiences more and that is what we're seeing played out in our communities.
We all need to do more to live our lives through our souls.

I too believe that we are living out a story that has already been told. We are only slightly aware of the wisdom of our souls.
Deja Vu, the feeling of having already experienced the present is evidence enough for me.
