For me. Since being a part of this forum and not because of this forum I have gone through mutliple levels of change in my spiritual walk. Right now is no different. I have come to a place where all that I know in the head doesn't match what the heart feels. It's a scary place to be and I don't know wherethe end result will leave me. I have many, too many questions that in my head I have an answer for, but in my heart I have not been able to reconcile. I have privately communicated with a one or two of you on this matter and thank you for listening and for all the advise. Now I am taking this to a public forum...sorta public that is. Most of you all know I have changed my name on here recently. If you didn't know, my avatar is the same as before and all my info is still intact so you should know who I am.
I am sure each of you reading this have been through something akin to this. Whether it was going Lib to Con and back to Lib or whatever. I may be a different person upon completion of this journey...maybe for the better, maybe not depending on where you are standing and looking from. I know that at the end I hope to be able to sleep better at night and feel better. For too long, even after I left the UPC I have felt a bit of anxiety when talking about my spiritual life and/or spiritual walk. I know who I am, I know what my wants are for my spiritual life. Only a few people really, I mean really know me...those that do would tell you I am a very loyal friend, ferociously in fact. I know that won't change, but all other things may...I am scared and also very interested where this will leave me in the end.
God Bless!

Well, this sort of begs the question of "What direction are you headed?"
You been reading the Koran?
Been to an Amish barn raising?
Listening to George Norey too much???
Get a big load of incense at Maundy Thursday Mass?
Been feeding the Spirit Guides too much?
Considering a sex change?

No, but I am coming out with a new Country album. It'll be called Irish Country Boy. I'm doing a remake of the Ricky Skaggs hit, "Country Boy At Heart."

I am very open-minded for sure. But all kidding aside...this really does scare me because things are chagning at a rapid pace and it is a lot to handle. But I am sure I will be able to handle it.

I hear you. I am sure it could be scarey... You started a thread... Are you wanting to really discuss your thoughts on this or just bounce the idea of changing in general?
