The beginning

Many wonderful and amazing experiences have occured in my life when connected to the source. There are many ways to connect to that divine flow. Sometimes as a child it just happens, naturally due to our guardian angels comforting us. I was fortunate enough as child to have such an experience. My body was filled with joy, lightness of heart and comfort. Of course as a child i had no idea what was happening and had no teacher. I just felt safe.
I did have though the omnipresent Catholic Church rising above me, St Patrick's Cathedral, NYC, to be exact. The church with its mixed messages of guilt seemed like a unlikely place to experience lightness of being. My maternal influences were all devote Catholics tortured and unhappy with their lives, except for Jesus. I did not want to follow in there footsteps so i quickly dismissed any affinity for the Church. I lived my life without any real religion except for the trees, wind and waters. Little did i know i had a whole support system always there watching over me. This amazing experience had never left me and would resurface again later in life when i needed the guidance the most.
