Whats new!!

Not the best pic...but a beautiful creature :)

  I feel distant from god right now. That could be all in my brain though. The transition from Catholicism to Non-Denominational is a tough one. I stepped away from religion a few years ago when I realized that you didn't need a religion to find god. Since my departure from religion I can honestly say that I have definitely seen an immense amount of growth in myself. I have also seen a change in the way I interact with others as well. I'm not saying I'm always nice (actually I can get quite a temper) but being able to chose my own way, and a god to believe in, I have found more inner peace than ever before. All of this derives from just making a simple choice. Choice is a beautiful thing, always remember you have a choice. If the world was more gentle with the power of that choice I feel that there would be less corruption and pain. What I believe is that God DOES give you a choice...because if he didn't that's all people would know is him. We wouldn't know how to go against him or question him because he would've already pre-programmed us to believe in that singles idea, but never to not believe or question if he really does exist. When I look around at the world we are just aware (even if we choose to not accept it) but not exactly understanding really what or who it is that has made this all happen or why it chose us for this life...all we seem to know now is of our needs and not of others. As being who I am I will never give up in humanity, because once you have a relationship with the creator, even the bad things, can be created to make something great!
