Why Some People Don’t ‘Feel’ Spiritual: The Role of Choice in Soul Growth

Hello, my curious souls! Today we’re diving into a juicy topic: Why do some people just not feel spiritual? You know the ones. The “I’ll believe it when I see it” crew, arms crossed, side-eyeing your crystal collection like it’s a science experiment gone rogue.

So, what’s going on? Is their spiritual Wi-Fi broken? Have they missed the cosmic memo? Let’s unpack this, shall we?

Choice: The Ultimate Soul Hack

Here’s the big secret: spirituality is a choice. Yep. It’s not some mystical gene you inherit like Aunt Mabel’s dodgy knees. Every soul comes to this life with free will, which means we get to choose how deeply we connect (or don’t) with our spiritual side.

Some people are like, “YES, sign me up for all the woo-woo!” Others are more, “Hmm, I’ll pass, thanks,” preferring to focus on the material, the logical, the what-you-can-touch-and-measure side of life. And you know what? That’s okay. It doesn’t make them any less of a soul having a human experience.

Soul Growth: The Long Game

Here’s where it gets even spicier. Some souls aren’t here to dive deep into spiritual development this time around. Maybe in their last life, they were levitating on a mountain somewhere, and in this one, they just want to enjoy pizza without pondering the meaning of existence. Fair enough.

Soul growth isn’t a race. There’s no prize for “Most Enlightened in 2025.” Everyone evolves at their own pace. Some people need a few lifetimes to even get curious about spirit. Others have one bad breakup and suddenly they’re staging their flat and charging their crystals under the full moon.

But Wait, There’s More...

Even if someone doesn’t feel spiritual, it doesn’t mean they’re not connected. They might just express it differently. Maybe through art, nature, acts of kindness, or that deep sigh of satisfaction when their tea is brewed perfectly. Connection isn’t always about meditating in lotus position under a waterfall. Sometimes it’s as simple as feeling awe when the sky does something dramatic at sunset.

The Takeaway:

  • Spirituality is a choice. Some people choose not to engage, and that’s perfectly fine.

  • Soul growth is personal. Not everyone’s on the same timeline, and that’s the beauty of it.

  • Connection looks different for everyone. Just because someone isn’t into crystals doesn’t mean they’re not connected in their own way.

So, next time someone rolls their eyes at your tarot deck, just smile and remember: We’re all souls doing our thing. Some with crystals, some with spreadsheets. It’s all good.
