My greatest emotional possession in becoming a humanist is what I define as my spirituality, the uncontrollable eruption of feelings which elicit shivers and tears, empathy and love. These higher emotional feelings come to me spontaneously, without invitation or intelligent design, as involuntary reactions to my human experience. They arise from what I think is the spiritual side of my emotional core, as when I observe the awesome face of nature and universe, or the beautiful aspects of human nature and life. My human spirituality exists beyond the indescribable synapses that trigger my higher emotions.
