Defining Spirituality
While thinking over this past week, after Christmas and before New Years, I was watching the news on all the New Years traditions that the Southern United States still adheres to. Things like eating greens for financial security in the coming year, not taking your trash out on New Years for luck, and black-eyed peas for something my great gramma used to tell me, but I find myself forgetting. The South is full of superstitions, as most places are, but I woke up this morning thinking about those. I was wondering where they came from - like the fear that if you одежда 2009 sweep your house after dark, you’ll sweep your good luck away Встраиваемые микроволновые печи because you can’t tell the difference without the light - and I realized that some things are universal, no matter the religion a person holds themselves closest to.

This morning, I read a story from the Dalai Lama about wisdom. In the parts of the Qu’ran I have read, it was a storyline. The Native American tribes not only told their stories,

“We work our tails to the bone интернет магазины мобильных телефонов getting the salespeople leads, but they hardly ever follow-up with the prospects, and we never hear about it if they do,” lamented Andy, the Marketing Manager, during a recent training program.
“They give us loads of leads,” agreed salesperson Bert, “but they’re no damn good. Then, Серьезные отношения they want a full report on each of them about what transpired within a week after we get the leads. I’d rather do without leads than do all of that useless work.”
