Faith
I found something a while back. I didn't even realize I'd found it until recently, which is surprising considering I'd been searching for it for years. You'd think that I would have noticed it when it finally came into my possession, rather than just sneaking in quietly like pocket lint.What I'm talking about is, as the title says, faith. You see, faith was something that I've wanted since I was very small, but never could find in a brand I liked. It was always too dogmatic for me. You had to buy "Catholic" faith, or "Presbyterian" faith or "Mesopotamian" faith. Too branded for me.
Heck, I was the one who broke other's faith. I certainly did for my ex. Opened her eyes to the wider world of questions and helped break down that wall of dogma for her. But I never did find any faith of my own. Until now.
The faith that I've found doesn't have rules, at least not of the sort that tell me when I can eat chocolate or that my Jesus can beat up your Jesus. The primary rule here is to have faith in yourself. But even then it's not of the "little engine that could" variety, though there is part of that there. It's also about recognizing the divinity in all things. God is everywhere, even in you. God loves you, so you should love yourself. And you have the power within yourself to manifest all things divine. The Source is here. We are all the lost parts of that Source, looking to find a way home. And the Source is waiting for us to find our way back.
I'm glad I found it. And I'm glad I realized I found it. It's a step on a path back, I think, back to the Source.
