What keeps you grounded?

To be grounded can mean so many things--it can mean recognizing and respecting our mortality, or sticking to the basics of truth and virtue, or keeping a good head on one's shoulders. My (rather ironic) answer to this question-- it's travel that keeps me grounded. Exploring new places or even coming home to where I grew up constantly reminds me of how I'm but a speck in our complex planet--a speck that tries to make do with opportunities, reinforce relationships, and fully embrace life down to the littlest details. So, what keeps YOU grounded?

Learning and always working on being more empathetic.

I have found that the ground, literally, helps me stay grounded. Occasionally I like to get out someplace and get my fingers in the soil, smell it, just kneel there and touch dirt. It seems to bypass my cerebrum and go straight to my limbic system. Which is nice.

I've always been grounded....I don't know what it's like to not be grounded...thanks laws of physics

nothing keeps me grounded. who needs to be grounded? live life, spend your savings on fun stuff, be with the ones you love, get your priorities lined up and just do it!

gravity.

Jesus Christ.

I realize that isn't going to be for everyone, but for myself, it does.

Nature keeps me in awe, thus keeping me grounded. I figure that I am suppose to be a part of the awe-inspiring planet, and I do my best to pay respect with action and best effort.

I dont even know if I am grounded. It seems like the good answer would be my kids.
