How do you manage to keep your life spiritual? Do you find it comes naturally? With me it is a constant struggle.

It is a mental thing. There is no such thing as "non-spiritual". How could there be? There are things you think are wrong and things you think are right and you will be able to get many to agree with you on both, but not everyone because none of us experience this planet in a human body the same as anyone else. You need to remove the mote from your eye (or as it is paraphrased somewhere, don't concern yourself with the mote in your neighbors eye, remove the plank from your own eye). Perception is 80 % of our experience. You have the choice to change how you think about things, but you cannot change anyone else. As for influences, you are the one who chooses that as well. You can notice it but you don't have to react to it.
