Those of you who know me and read my blog, know I am on a spiritual journey. My eyes are opened and I feel blessed in the gifts/awareness/freedom I am finding. The path I am following is one that is right for me and my family. The shoe fits. I am spiritual and I know I am a good person. However, that said, just cause this is the correct fit for me, Ben, and the kids - does not mean that it is for everyone. Can I tell you how much it freaking pisses me off when I read stuff about different religions claiming they are the ONLY true one. I mean, how f-ing conceited. Why in the world would there be such a plethora of choice if only ONE is correct and everyone else be damned???!!! So what, those of us who live our lives being good, honest, decent people will go to hell cause we aren't members of the cool club? WTF? It is like my big prob with Judaism, when we were told that men with un circ'ed penises won't get into Heaven. So Ben and Kit, as good hearted as they are are condemned FOREVER? Yeah, uh, no. Do not agree. Will not accept that nonsense.
People have the right to believe that. And if that makes them happy, that is fine. I am OK with agreeing to disagree. And I can like people even when we do not share the same opinion. However, this is my blog and I am stating that I find that so totally baffling and it makes me so angry!
The second thing that drives me totally bonkers is that we are all born into sin. My children are born into sin. Uh, I have to say no, I do not agree with that one. Sorry. Does not sound right. Not embracing that. Not teaching that to my children. Why would I embrace something that basically would make me feel like I am never good enough???? I can do that to myself all on my own if I want to - and I do not.
Anyway, reading is a good thing cause it certainly puts things into perspective for me. Everyday I am sure that I am on my right path. Ben feels it, I feel it and so do the kids. I am so comforted by the love of the Goddess and God, Mother and Father, Yin and Yang. I feel it from with in and I feel it around me through out the universe. I can live my life by being the person I want to be. I teach my kids to be the best they can be, know right from wrong, and to lead by example. And we can feel good about ourselves at the same time.
End Rant....
