The connecting core
Not a religion, but the non-physical part of us that experiences life beyond the five senses — and connects us all. The book treats it with openness, welcoming every reader regardless of creed.
A book by Abel Calderon, Jr.
Spirituality, happiness, and eternal bliss start with you.
My Path to Me unites spirituality, love, and personal development through one quiet discovery: the relationship you have with yourself.

The Book
Spirituality, lived through four relationships.
At its heart, My Path to Me explores spirituality — not as a religion, but as the part of us that connects us all. The book walks you through four deepening relationships, and ends with a gentle, practical way to make the journey your own. Whatever your creed, there is a place for you on this path.
Chapter One
A relationship with myself
The journey begins within. Discover the non-physical self — the soul, the spirit — and how meeting it honestly rejuvenates the parts of life that have gone quiet.
Chapter Two
A relationship with others
Spirituality is the gateway to real intimacy. Learn to bring vulnerability and presence to the connections you care about most.
Chapter Three
A relationship with God
However you understand it, explore that "something" that connects us all — the source of our spiritual selves — with openness rather than dogma.
Chapter Four
A relationship with everything
Widen the circle outward — to nature and the world around you — until connection becomes a way of moving through life.
Chapter Five
One outline for prayer
A warm, practical close: spirituality is like a muscle you train through practice. Pray and meditate from the heart, and let it become an act of love.
What You'll Discover
Three areas, one relationship at the center
My Path to Me illustrates how spirituality, love, and personal development come together through the discovery of your relationship to yourself.
Deeper relationships
Love is the thread running through every relationship in the book — with yourself, with others, and with the Divine. Learn to meet each one with honesty, vulnerability, and presence.
Growth you can practice
Spirituality and personal growth are not opposites — they strengthen each other. The book closes with a practical prayer-and-meditation practice you can begin today.
