The only explanation of spirituality that makes sense to me comes from Dr. Brene Brown. In her book, The Gifts of Imperfection, Dr. Brown says: “Spirituality is recognizing and celebrating that we are all inextricably connected to each other by a power greater than all of us, and that our connection to that power and to one another is grounded in love and compassion. Practicing spirituality brings a sense of perspective, meaning and purpose to our lives.” And for a long time I felt this was enough of an understanding. That it sufficed. I had just never found this and probably never will but at least I had a definition of what I was missing.
