ive personally talked to alot of people who are so concerned with the mainstream version of "religion" and "spirituality" that they dont realize that that wonderfull feeling they get when they sit outside under the sun and connect with themselves or the world around them...THAT is also a form of spirituality.
And for me it's the opposite. For example, my uncle lives on 100 acres of land complete with horses, cattles, trees, a pond, fish, etc. I can sit out there and waste the entire day away just taking in everything around me. Watching the horses gallop full speed across the land yet running for no other reason than because they love it, well, it's intoxicating. Noticing each and every distinct feature of the cows and the way they smell and the way they move and sound.....it fascinates me. The sounds the trees make when a strong wind blows and the way they bend with that wind....I just sit and ponder just how did they do that. I can lie back and watch the clouds go by and just get lost in all that's around me.
But I see it all as God's doing. He made those things and he made them for me to enjoy. He wants me to study them and find pleasure in them.
My grandfather (dad's dad) was a Southern Baptist preacher. Although they lived in Texas (Kermit, Midland, White Oak) for all the time I remember, I do remember loving to go to church when we were visiting. Often times their church held it's service outdoors on the grounds and IMO there was nothing better than to free onesself of the manmade walls of a church and just enjoy nature at it's best. I remember thinking that there was no way we were going to be able to pay attention, and I sure didn't get into trouble, but I actually find it easier to listen to and absorb a sermon when outside underneath the blue sky and sunshine hearing the birds sing. Like I mentioned above, it's intoxicating.
EDIT: Oh, & it's not just sunny days I enjoy. Although I'm scared to death of tornadoes and it saddens me to think of the destruction they bring, I am completely fascinated by them! In fact, thunderstorms and lightning fascinate me. I will wake up in the middle of the night if one starts and go sit outside on the covered patio and watch it or just watch it from the window. When hurricanes hit, it's hard for me to do anything but watch. The strength, the power......it's amazing.
