"I believe in nothing, everything is sacred. I believe in everything, nothing is sacred." ~Tom Robbins~ I don't see "things" as sacred. I don't see sacredness in inanimate objects. Something might have a particular value to me...My dad's compass, my mom's class ring, a favorite book from childhood...but I could lose them and still have memories of their value and importance in my life. I'm not a religious person but I am deeply spiritual. I see life and nature as having a scared value for me, but does that mean I worship it? Good question. For me, sacred means highly valued and extremely important. Using that as a definition, my space is sacred...as is my time and self-acknowledgement which leads to self-respect, as mentioned by another person. Once I have that sacredness in place, I can see the sacredness in others and in everything we do. Right now, the most sacred act of worship I can perform is the feeding of my cats....according to them They can be very demanding goddesses.
