I was at a meeting this morning and old friend shared something she was told years ago. "Never be afraid of your spiritual path". When I'm okay with my path I'm ok with yours.

I have no understanding of what a god is. I know it ain't me. I'm a bag of meat (one of several billion) on a tiny rock flying through a universe that is beyond my comprehension.

My higher power is what the Buddhists call Metta - loving kindness and compassion. It's as simple as that. I have a Christian friend who says God is love. To quote a Bob Dylan lyric, "we always did feel the same we just saw it from a different point of view". Cheers.
