Hannelore, thank you for your kind words.
I used to feel that I didn't "belong", because for most of my life I wasn't part of a church family. But then I read something that sounds funny, but is true..."Going to church doesn't make you a good person any more than being in a garage makes you a car!"
Now I need to make it clear that I know there are many, many good people who do attend church regularly - My intention is not to hurt anyone's feelings!

But I think as I have gotten older I realized that it was much more important for me to have an ongoing "talking relationship" with God than to be inside a church building once a week. That, and just (as I said before) following the Golden Rule. And now I feel very peaceful about my spirituality.
