What do you treasure the most? How do you imagine the world? Peter Feldmeier, professor of Catholic Studies at the University of Toledo, says if you are willing to ask yourself these questions, then you’re on the way to defining your own spirituality.
Feldmeier volunteers with Cherry Street Mission, a nonprofit community resource center in Toledo that offers job training, an overnight shelter, and daily meals. “My supervisor was talking to someone who was new at the shelter,” he says. “This was a person with massive anger issues, zero social skills—someone whom you just have an aversion to, as Buddhists would say. But she went up to him and said, ‘I love you.’ And she meant it.”
