DH ~ Darcy 31
I am currently waiting and learning about my fertility. (We have a plan for the future to have kids.)
I am learning about all the religions but I do believe in another spiritual place other than here on Earth... some could say Heaven or something to that nature. I think there is a greater entity than we know, some could say God. I want to be the most centred person I can be so I can raise (if I'm lucky enough to have) my potentional children in a peaceful atmosphere.
I also have two dogs, Roxy and Mason who Darcy and I are learning from everyday.

Religion/beliefs? Firm agnostic I guess I don't have any set religious beliefs, but I know what I believe to be true spiritually...if that makes sense.
Anything else you would like to share? I talk to my dead friends and relatives...and animals. I especially love talking to my mom and was beginning to wonder if she could really see and hear--not that I would stop talking to her, but I just wonder these things. I was at my in-laws' this weekend and decided to make the climb to their attic to take a bath in the fun clawfoot tub. The window steamed and I noticed 2 flies. I thought of my mom--when we were little, she used to tell us that flies were Santa's elves watching us. We lived in Alabama, so they were there all year long and in the summer, she would forget and ask us to kill the flies. Of course, we'd go nuts with crying over killing Santa's elves. I laughed a little to myself then started bawling. I told her that I hated to ask her, but please give me a sign that she's ok, that I'll be ok, that the baby will be ok. I closed my eyes and laid back. When I opened them, the fly was completing its walking pattern on the steamed window--a perfect angel, dress, wings, head, halo. I'm serious. DH came in and I asked what he saw--an angel, of course. It's what my mom collected and I've never really cared for them, but have a ton that I got from her collection after she died. I find them around sometimes and they always make me smile--partially because of the absurdity that I actually OWN any, but mostly because I think of my mom.
Sorry...just thought I'd share. I've focused on the death part of my beliefs since she died and whether she's around. Of course she is.

Anything else you would like to share? I believe there is a reason for everything even when I don't undertand it or when it seems completely unfair & without value - my spiritual "job" is to learn acceptance & to try to find whatever value I can in everything that happens in my life & the world, whether I like it or not.

So glad you're here.. I have so many questions about archangels from my reiki session... If you feel comfortable, please feel free to start a thread for them to help us understand...
Absolutely. I will start a thread briefly now, and come back tomorrow to reply. I'm about to go to bed, it's 11pm here, I have work tomorrow, and I'm wiped out!
I guess I don't have any set religious beliefs, but I know what I believe to be true spiritually...if that makes sense.
