My spiritual journey began as a kid when I was very young because my grandpa was agnostic and took me church hopping. We sat in the back row because he was always  looking for a feeling, and if he didn't "feel it" we would leave. He always told me, "God is not in the words of the book. God is in the people; it's a feeling inside."  I've taken that to mean the connection we are looking for has been inside all of us, all along.  We just have to slow down long enough to realize that  the Soulful Journey is really a journey back to self love; self acceptance.  Fortunately, there are many tools that can help us remember the co-creative power we have to live the best life we can, and that momentum starts inside with a simple willingness to do something different.
