A Journey

I started out believing there was but one church which had the truth, and only one. However, I felt always in a rut. By mid-life – with religion I was done. Too many ideologies exist! It makes no sense, for all cannot be true. There’s one thing that I feel can’t be dismissed - there is a “Someone” who loves me and you all equally. I see Him and I feel Him in earth’s beauty and the souls of those who do good works. I know that He is real. The orderliness of creation shows a Master is behind it all! I know one day in death, my soul will homeward go. Jan. 8, 2021 Unseeking Seeker's "My Spiritual Journey" Poetry Contest (NA) For Brian Strand's 'ALL YOURS' Poetry Contest

There is indeed a master of the grand show we call life. Well executed.

Thanks. And how it can be denied is beyond my comprehension!

It does not take much experience of life to realise there is a greater power unseen' those who use it to do some good generally enjoy an happier life than those who use it to some advantage. Good luck in this event! Aloha! Rico

I could TRULY understand your mind Andrea. This is straight from the heart and yes, it's true that we all believe in some kind of 'Soul' from 'Above', that loves us all EQUALLY.. Now, ..after reading yours, I really donno what to write for this...Most of the things I wish to convey for this contest, you have already written. Still, I'll try to put it in a different way.. GREAT spiritual journey.... Hugs ~ Ani

thanks, Victor. I often do not feel that way. I just kind of flutter along.
