Welcome

I will start by sharing my journey. What I have learned and what I now understand.

I can look back on my life so far and see that I have always been aware of the need for the spiritual in my life. It was ever present, teaching me the truth.

I found some satisfaction in a Christian church as a child and youth. Though, even there I knew there was more to learn. The lessons weren't as complete as they would have me believe. (I know now that Jesus was enlightened, but his message was largely misunderstood and misappropriated for other purposes, creating separation where he would have had wholeness.)

As I moved away from attendance at the church, my heart was still spiritually focused. I am an avid reader, as is my mother, and I read several books at her suggestion, which fascinated and awed me. The first was Conversations with God by Neale Donald Walsch. Though I connected deeply with the message of that book, it was merely the planting of a seed.

While I was working for a small youth mental health organization, I began to learn about 'connectedness'. I heard of research showing that a sense of connectedness increased resiliency in youth. This idea struck a cord with me. I started to recognize that there are some things that, when you hear them, you simply know their Truth. But what is that "knowing" and where does it come from?
