Wa alaikumussalam sister
For me, spirituality is about connecting with my inner self, knowing its needs and making an effort to fulfill those needs.
My inner self wants to know the essence of my being and the purpose of everthing that surrounds me. It wants to know what is my ultimate destiny. The needs of my inner self are satisfaction, contentment and peace.
How do I find answers to all those questions? By engaging my thoughts in the creation of Allah almighty. By thinking about the presence of love and sacrifice among even the tiniest of animals and so forth.
How do I achieve that peace and satisfaction? It may be different for each inidividual. However, I would think that by putting a smile on a face that forgot how to smile, feeding a mouth that has gone without food and by extending an unconditional helping hand to those who need it.
And when the world is sleeping, I wake up. When everything is silent, my heart starts praising Allah with his beautiful names and remember that though how little I am and how Great He is, He likes to be my friend as He states:
And when My servants question thee concerning Me, then surely I am nigh. I answer the prayer of the suppliant when he crieth unto Me. So let them hear My call and let them trust in Me, in order that they may be led aright.
The result of that cry will be nothing else except what Allah says:
'Verily in the remembrance of Allah do hearts find rest'
