I believe that a higher being brings so many comfort, strength, love, direction.....

However, I do not believe in an entity such as one god. The idea that there is One way to believe and live is beyond my comprehension. From what I have been privy too, each religion believes they are the one correct religion. That belief is just too small for me.

Like Humlan, I don't know what I believe. I do believe in science, but I also believe in unproven truths. For example, I believe that if you see the good in everyone and everything, you will live a happier life; if you live in negative energy, you will receive negative energy in return. All the new age jazz, I suppose, is where my leanings tend to go.

I am comfortable with anyone's beliefs, as long as they are uplifting and positive. I have recently attended 3 memorial services for people I love, and I was joyously singing the Christian hymns. I received the prayers and readings from the bible without any problem. It is not the path that I have chosen to take, but I will embrace the beliefs that others choose to select.

Lola asked (I am too lazy to go find the quote, so this is a general interpretation) what non believers go to when life gets tough. I go to you. I go to my inner peace. I go to the energy fields around me that bring me solace. I go to love of who and what surrounds me.

I speak from the heart.
