Trough Spirituality

C.S. Lewis talks about ‘trough sexuality.’  The idea being that most human things go through peaks and troughs.

Trough spirituality is a great gift.  It is the gift of integration.

The spirituality you experience when you are not feeling the burning fire helps you tie the ordinary things about you into your spiritual life.  If your only spirituality were peak spirituality, you would be a divided person.
