A Spiritual Journey

Another blog. This is my third. Why do I have so many? Because I am so many people. I know so many people, and I am a different man for each group I live among. For some reason, I don't necessarily want the varied groups of individuals I associate with to connect one me with another me. The personalities I use to interact with this world are created to help be BE in this world. If I were to be just myself as so many would recommend, I would be alone and disdained by all of Man and God. I am, in my purest unaltered form, a miserable wretch.

So I have made myself into many people, only my family knows them all.

This blog is for the spiritual me. I have been on a spiritual quest, seemingly since I was born, certainly for as far back as I can remember. Lately, I feel as if I have lost the Path a little. I'm writing to try to straighten it out, to get my footing on the road I want to be on. Being so many people makes this difficult to see who the real me is. Writing helps me take chaotic thoughts and organize them.

My spiritual journey these days consists of more activity than is has in the past. Seeking knowledge often yields more questions than answers. My methods are to meditate daily about my relationship with God, to read the Bible, and to speak with the Christians who cross my path in life. Now I am adding to that the writing of essays because too many times I take in information without understanding it, and I have a new need to understand.
