What is the most important thing you have learned in your life?

I think there are many but this is the first thing that came to mind.

That anger just creates more anger and we are all the same. we all are scared at times and we all have insecurities. the key is to recognize this and work with it rather than fight it.

Describe a belief that you previously held and then subsequently changed. What caused you to change your mind?

I grew up Roman Catholic so that was my previosue belief in my late teens and early twenty's Iw as very disenchanted with religion. I discovered a refreshing perspective with Wicca and really consider myself most in alignment with those ideas. Currently I think respect for others beliefs is the path I follow. I do have my own and I share them when asked (look below) I thin what caused me to change was I started paying attention to how thigns felt from my heart. what felt right for me.

Who do you admire most in the world (past and/or present) and why?

I do not admire anyone in particular. I admire all of those who have faced their fears since I think all of us have doen this in one form or another I can say I admire everyone. :o)

At this turbulent moment in history, what do you think is the most important thing a person can do to help humankind (and the rest of the planet) survive the many dangers that confront us?

The most important thing a person can do is be true to themsleves and listen to their heart. I think that if they do this they will find the peace in love in themselves. In turn they will have a positive impact on all of those they meet. I think this is the most effective way to change our world.

What are your answers to the big questions: Who are we? Where are we from? Why are we here? Where are we headed?

I think we are divine, I think we are part of God (or whatever name or title you want) as God is a part of us. I think we have always been here, I think we have experienced many lives in many forms. I think we do this to experience life in all it's beauty and magnificence. I don't know where we are headed currently but I think that's what makes it exciting and opens the possibilities.

Why did you decide to join this community?

To meet like minded folks and maybe not so like minded so that we can communicate and share.
