So much to do

Posted by a conscious life on July 29th, 2007 filed in Personal Growth, Books & Stuff, Theology & Religion

It seems to most that I have abandoned my blog (or just neglected it).  That’s not the case.  I go through periods of time when I am internalizing my world and haven’t sorted it out enough to blog about it.  I could be like some of those lame blogs that list bunches of links in their posts, like that somehow makes up for them not giving us their thoughts and feelings on life.  But I’m not one of those types of bloggers.

So what’s been keeping me from sorting out my thoughts?  Well, I’ve been very active on some of my yahoo groups.  (You have no idea how long it can take to read through some of those emails… ok, maybe some of you have an idea.)  Especially the Unschooling God Journey group.  I’ve been working on pimping out my MySpace page and helping other friends get theirs set up.  I’ve been reading tons.  Mostly memoirs and books on different world religions.

I’ve been on a very unnerving spiritual journey lately.  I’ve been questioning everything I was brought up to believe.  Don’t get me wrong, Jesus is still my foundation but everything else is questionable.  Part of this has been my drive to study other world religions.  Not to find a new religion but to further my spiritual growth and enlightenment.  I believe there is much to be learned in other religions.

So that seems to be why I haven’t posted anything since the beginning of the month.  I’m still trying to sort out a bunch of stuff.  So until I can find a way to put some of this into words, I’ll direct you to a friend’s blog, So Much to Say…So Little Time.  She’s put so much of the God Journey into words in a wonderful way.

    I can really relate to this post. I didn’t blog much all spring for the same basic reason. I thought the LIFE is Good conference would break the funk and get me writing again, but it just gave me more to process! I might have to go join the UFJ group now. Thanks.

    I can highly recommend John Spong’s A New Christianity For A New World. I have been where you are,questioning everything about my Methodist upbringing which in my adult years became non-denominational. I too love Jesus but am looking at christianity in a new light.
    peace as you journey,

    i saw your blog on Onarach’s site. wanted to come and check you out. i’m new to the homeschooling journey.

    i have a question, are homeschooling families mostly christians? i’m just wondering and wasn’t sure who to ask.

    It sounds like you time off the blog has been well spent. Keep it up.

    momofheathens… Shocking I know. LOL

    It sounds like you are on a hard journey but the fact that you are taking in everything and trying to learn is a very very good sign.
