Title: Forgot To Tell You...
Post by: gratitude28 on August 10, 2007, 05:34:36 PM
A long while back on here I told you all that I had a hard time with organized religion and with accepting people of faith. You all wrote me about your ideas and I think mud really thwacked me over the head when he said that people shared their ideas because that was what gave them comfort...
So I began to understand that people were sharing with me and not trying to control me (gee, can't imagine where I got that idea after living with my family...).
And I am happy to say, I now feel comfortable with most people when they talk about faith and what they believe. I like people who have faith now and I understand why they would want and seek both the higher power and the fellowship that accompanies it.
There are still some fruits out there and I am not a big fruit lover...
But thank you all very much.
Love, Beth

I've ordered a sticker of what Moon suggested to me: G_D needs spiritual fruits not religious nuts!

Glad you are finding peace, that's what G_d is to me, love and belonging to the universe, being 'rightful' in all things.

Someone told me ages ago:

God is here --->



                                                     <------ and religion is somewhere in between.......



People are here --->

Hey guys ,
I am around .................................LOVE to you Write and Beth
(((((((((((((((((((((((((((()))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
I do not know how organized I am or how nutz tee hee.....
That cool quote I have on a fridge magnet I got it from a store called Peace of the Universe ....

The higher power in all of us brings out the true meaning of love and forgiveness
and my path to find these within has not been an easy one.

My 2 kids are great and my little moonet is going to be a freshman in high school.
Mr. Moon is well and so sweet and kind.
He has walked the steps with me  thur some painful bi polar times.
The kindness of the human spirit soothes my soul.

So much Love to you
Moon

I'm with you Beth. I understand.

I have an N sister who is hiding herself behind some fundementalist religion and preaches on EVERY subject. She drives me nuts.

Yes I know Nuts and Fruits!

And I know my own feelings on the whole matter without having to bring it into play.

love
Izzy
