Please do not take spirituality as what you are seeing on this forum...it is sad that we are not allowed to express the peace, joy, love, beauty, & understanding that comes with our religion because of the constraints that are put on us here. The problem is that it's impossible to separate our spirituality from our religion. It's not something that can be forced into political correctness.

It is only something that I have come to an understanding of lately & I grew up with it all my life....but when your heart is opened up to the feelings that come, it is an amazing wonderful feeling that seems to just overflow into your whole life & make a difference that is almost impossible to express. It is however impossible to explain without getting into the religious aspect because with out the religious aspect, it can't exist.

It is sad when people end up trying to push their religion down anyone's throat or force you into a situation you don't feel comfortable with.....no matter what the religion.......sometimes that happens when one is put on the defensive & wouldn't happen otherwise...then again, some people take explainations the wrong way & feel that the religion is being forced on them when all one is trying to do is offer an explaination when the answer can't be explained any other way with our spirituality.

Sadly, our answers have been silenced here as they have throughout history & will continue to be.....but it doesn't stop the awsome beauty that our spirituality/religion allows us to live with throughout our daily lives & that beauty is something that one should not stop searching for.....it is something I have not found anyother place in my life until now....& the search was definitely worth it not only for now, but for my future that goes far beyond now.
