Some choose religion as their sacred home for worship and prayer
others choose spirituality, "it seats the noumenon of their soul "
From very young I was introduced to religion, mom kept a chapel in the house
we were taught to pray the rosary and be obedient according to bible laws
I had a statue of Mary that I kept on my dresser and from a young age
she spoke to me and encouraged me to live despite the pain I was experiencing at such a young age...
Later in life when I reached my thirties I went through a crisis,
during the darkest nights of my soul I found the philosophy of Buddhism
both comforting and altruistic to my nature.
I learned from monks how to go within
Today at the age of sixty two I realize that both were gifts
One taught me discipline and introduced me to Mystical experiences
the other helped to re-discover the child within
and heal the broken parts of me ...
Today I work as a healer and I do my part to help others heal
It is all about love and compassion and how we choose to express our
FAITH
Religion and Spirituality, I believe I was blessed to be able to
embrace both equally without feeling that one threatened the other.
