SPIRTUALITY AND LIFE"S JOURNEY

The Journey to God

     One of the founding values of Boston College was a distinctive spirituality. It is this distinctive spirituality that we now want to explore.
     When we go into any bookstore or surf the Web, we are apt to uncover a booming business in spirituality. Spirituality means a variety of things and covers a multitude of practices and ideas. There is spirituality for every religious conviction, for men and for women, for athletes and for grandparents, for environmentalists and for business managers, for liberals and for conservatives. What all these spiritualities have in common is that they attempt to get into the mystery of life. Mystery here does not mean an unsolved crime but rather those deepest convictions and loves and experiences that define who we are and what we treasure.
