I’m a Canadian gal. I fancy the study of history, archaeology, philosophy, psychology and theology.
I have struggled in the past with spirituality and the whole ‘purpose for life’ thing. I’ve had some pretty down times as well as some great revelations. My spirituality seems to be something I cannot run away from, no matter how I try.
The questioning of our spirituality — our purpose, I have found, can be both a blessing and a curse. The pain of questioning our existance can be overwhelming, but sometimes the answers can be joyful. I have found myself, at times, in envy of those who go about their lives not questioning and being perfectly okay with whatever it is that makes us tick. These, are the genetic atheists and agnostics amongst us. But I also know that I can never be one of those people. And, I’m okay with that. I have decided to use my questioning as a blessing, and now I’m so happy I have done just that.
Gnosticism has afforded me such a rich and bountiful model for existance and our spiritual connections with The Divine. And, as a practicing Witch, I am blessed with the ability to use whatever tools I deem helpful in acknowledging, reinforcing, and revelling in that connection.
Brightest blessings, and may the light of The Divine shine brightly within you.

Hello, Father Jordan sent me here. I sooo could have written exactly what you wrote above~! (With the single exception that I’m from the U.S.) I’m looking forward to reading more on your site. I’ve tried to run away from my spirituality as well. (Many times). Sometimes I wonder why I can’t just be like my friends and not care. Life would be so much easier! Ha! Sincerely, Pam

Hi Pam,
I’m glad you find something to relate to here on my blog. I ask myself the same question…..why I can’t be like some of my friends who are so indifferent to spiritual matters. Sometimes it seems life would be sooo much easier if we could exist like they do….alas, we simply are different people.
But, don’t worry….you aren’t alone!!
I look forward to reading more of your comments!
Brightest,
Tara

I agree wit teh whole Gnostic religion. I pray all teh time adn have compleet devotion to teh lord. I love how open the Gnostic religion is adn I beleive this is teh relgion God called me for. I also am quite positive I have a location and amny priests which I have talked to confirmed this with what I explained to them. If you could please help me because I know I have a location in teh church but the dreams God is sending me and signs are reflecting towards two things a nun and priest but I’m pretty sure it’s only one. I’m having trouble figuring it out.
May the lord be with you

I’m curious. What are your thoughts on Thunder, Perfect Mind? How does it stay with you? How does it change you?
