My memories of the dark years when my spirit was comatose are beginning to fade somewhat, but not enough to compromise my loving care of the real me--the inner me. The inner me is happy and content: it no longer needs things, cravings for attention have disappeared, and feelings of joy, excitement, passion, exurbance all abound. I could not say that at any time during my childhood or earlier adult years. But nourishing my spirit through a closer walk with God and making every effort to be true to His ways is the greatest and most valuable experience of a lifetime.
"Are you aware that your spirit needs to be fed? Did you know that your spirit would be delighted to partake in a feast of spiritual food? How about a plate full of prayer? Or maybe a few hours of succulent self-reflection. Perhaps a piping-hot selection of spiritual literature, served by the side of a lake or under a tree, would satisfy your spiritual hunger. Can you imagine feasting for a few hours on spiritually uplifting music? What about some forgiveness à la mode, topped with compassion? You cannot imagine how much your spirit would enjoy it." --Iyanla Vanzant

Failure to nourish the body is immediately obvious--malnutrition or death result. Failure to exercise the mind is readily apparent as well, but failure to nourish the spirit can be hidden from all except those who know us well. The spirit can remain comatose indefinitely, but the results are just as serious as failure to nourish the body or exercise the mind.
