There is one aspect of bipolar disorder that I find fascinating, because it is very much in tune with the natural world, and that is the cyclic nature of BD. The natural world, which to me is directly connected to the spiritual world, is cyclic. Spirituality, for me, is that connectedness I feel with the universal natural world. That doesn't necessarily mean I have to be sitting by a mountain stream or standing near the ocean. I can feel the connectedness while inside of a busy city. I believe that it's there for me whenever I'm willing to listen to it and feel it.
Maybe today I am in a green meadow full of wildflowers...maybe today I'm in a painful place. Either way, the cycle remains ever changing, ever constant.
