On a rainy, overcast, and cold Thursday morning, while the UK is on critical alert due to terrorist threats, I felt the need to remind myself why I'm working at Zaadz. I believe that what we're doing here is worthwhile in the grand scheme of things...
(via zQuotes tagged with "zaadz")
First of all, I just want to make a distinction about who zaadz is serving. When we first came up with the idea for zaadz, we talked about creating a community for 'spiritual' people. Unfortunately, the word 'spiritual' normally conjures up a vision of groups of monks sitting in silent meditation or perhaps... a bunch of idealistic vegans.
Our big realization is that 'spiritual' doesn't have to be put into a box (or a silo). We believe that spirituality is about following your soul's purpose, whether that's about doing yoga, spinning poi or creating the next big thing on the web.

We are not here to provide a platform for meaninglessness. We want people to come here for inspiration.
Source: :franc's Blog: So what up with all this positive communication? I strongly believe that nothing is more spiritual than living at our highest potential while serving others. I believe that the more closely aligned we are to "spirit" the more fully we will give ourselves in service to the world. As such, my "spiritual path" is the path that leads me to a more complete manifestation of my unique Bodhisattvic duties.

Yep, Zaadz is pretty much awesome. Sometimes I find it so difficult, with people who're unfamiliar with the site, to describe it. It encompasses so much. The people all have a common thread, but they are so varied, so multi-colored, and, you'll have to forgive the cliche metaphor, sewn into such a beautiful tapestry thanks to this site. Rock on.
