although i'm not at all at the spiritual level i'd like to be, i am happy to be open and receptive, allow feelings within myself that i didn't allow before and starting to like myself for my qualities and accept my faults.
i feel a greater peace than i ever had before ....even though life is quite tough at the moment.so i know this feeling if nurtured can only grow.

Sounds pretty spiritual to me, 4digit.

Me too. I learned the word 'expotential' to help describe the feeling, as in; ''The love and closeness I feel for my God has grown expotentially now that I've left the wts!''

Watkins...most of what I know today is what is NOT truth. Still it is freeing, and feels good to really know that it is NOT the all powerful truth.
Now I feel I am opening up to just believing in....what I am not sure yet....but something beyond just me.

I feel so much more spiritual than I ever have in my life. I actually got goosebumps reading the Gospel of John, not the NWT version. I found that salvation requires so much less than the Society says, and yet so much MORE. I feel free and I am so glad my children are free.

Chappy- I totally agree with you. Since being out 4 years ago , I have felt more a natural earthy type of spirituality that has nothing to do with organized religion , the Bible, or God. But a calming sense of being, existing, and being one with my environment, the earth. Kinda like the native americans felt, I guess ! Peace out, Mr. Flipper
