Exactly. Philosophy is all in the mind and words, spirituality is your actions.

He does not live by cotton candy alone. Those who do, will not withstand the grocery store test.

Well that was my point. I don't think anyone lives "only" on cotton candy(although it might seem that way)or only on health food(although it might seem that way). It's all a matter of degree and that degree runs the gamut.

"When one is locked into a carnival ground overnight?"
Get ready for that. Overnight...?? Dang thats quick. Carnies with water pistols and throwing darts. Swing the hammer. Hit the button. Throw it in the cup. Win a giant stuffed animal for your study. Ride the zipper and bumper boats. Watch the hypnotist show. Wake up and show your pig. Oh dang this ain't Fair. Enough with this country music already. Are you excited for the demolition derby?? Something about stamping hands when you leave so you can get back in.

Seriously though, we ARE all ONE, yes?? Does this really mean that we all have to act the same or meet some standard set by people like...?? Believe in yourself?? Know thy self?? I am not like most, I know this... I love it. We are also snowflakes. Which makes each of us UNIQUE. I think an accurate reflection would be most disorderly. Might you know how to tame the chaos?? A puff of fluff does enough, tough. Some muffs are rough and buff and have had enough. The grocery store line?? What does this prove??

Spirituality is not all love and compassion. I wish. I hope. We are fucking animals. Shadow?? Real.
Is this the wrong direction to be moving in?? Relative to what?? Is there a reality to anything else spiritual that we can explore?? I have faith. I choose both. Is this wrong??
When really going through this never mind the grocery line. All in good time.
Might be more progress being made in a difficult experience like your 'grocery line test' than you think.
