I ordered some Tarot cards. It’s a part of one of my SMART Goals. To develop my spirituality more. I think that’s an on-going process for life.

Why did the goal break up with the New Year’s resolution?

Because it wasn’t SMART enough – it needed more specific commitment!

Another way I’m fulfilling this goal is by learning about Stoicism. I’m currently reading a book about it. “How,” might you ask, “is philosophy related to spiritualism?” “Well!” I might respond, “Because stoicism plays a big role in religions world wide. It was a common philosophical belief that helped shape Christianity.” Or so I read in the book I’m reading, Stoicism: How to use stoic philosophy to find inner peace and happiness (paid link).

Here’s some quotations I highlighted in the book. It’s full of great takeaways:

I’ve only just begun reading it, but the information within it falls in line with the CBT/DBT therapy that I’m going to. And yes, I’m reading two books at once. A talent I picked up from my grandmother who had 3-4 books going at any given time.

Anyways, maybe I’ll have more highlighted text to show you in the future. I think that’s all for this blog post. When my clothes are done drying, I’m going to shower and greet the day!

Take care.
