I recently stuck my nose back into Abraham Maslow's 'Peak Experience' writings. I am not going to dictate the wealth of information out there on the subject into this post. However, I did want to share that it was a wonderful reminder about his work -- he too believed in an upward spiral to life.
Now if living on the upward spiral is not of interest to you, not a priority, that is all good. Carry on. But if something piques your interest about Peak Experiences (i.e. it may feel reassuring, or expanding, or exciting), it can be very clarifying to hear other words on a topic, and it may be a whole lot of fun to see where that seed takes you.
I know not many talk about the upward spiral. Most may not even really get the meaning of it. But just because it is not normal does not make it any less real, or for me, natural.
LOP is a life beyond what has probably felt like mediocrity; it is a life with the potential of peak experiences.
