About Religion

I always believed that all things happen for a reason. I've always believed in karma. What goes around comes around, do to others as you'd want done to yourself and people deserve the same respect from you as they have given you. All of this, whether I've shown it or not, I believed. No, I'm not religious, but I am spiritual. I don't believe in following organized religions, but I have faith. I've studied different religions and participated in some of those only to find, they all have their flaws. So I go by what has worked for me. I suppose the closest religion to what I believe is Pagan/Wicca, but I'm not Wiccan. I'm like a religion mutt. You can call me crazy for what I believe and do, but I don't care. It's not up to anyone to judge me. I'm in no way, shape, or form an atheist. I do come across the thought of, "What if it's true? What if there's nothing? No Heaven or Hell. Nothing controlling us. Etc," but I just can't bring myself to believe that it's true. For several reasons. It makes it seem as if we have no purpose here if Atheism is true. From what I've seen and experienced, I don't believe there's nothing to us. I can't say I believe in God or not, but I believe in there being something.

I believe in ghosts, spirits, and other related things. I've had many strange occurrences to cause me to believe in them. If fact, I believe something follows me. I've moved around a lot but experience similar things. The most common is with ceiling fans. From home to home I've had the lights turned off on me. Not just go out, but I've heard the light chains pulled. The current apartment I'm in has no ceiling fans but I hear noises here and there. The weirdest event involved my computer. I use to have it in the bedroom and when I would leave, I'd turn the monitor off. One night my bedroom door was open while I was in the kitchen. I know I turned the monitor off. I was at the table when I saw a light come on in our room. Somehow the monitor turned on. Other little things have happened in other homes. Doors shutting, things falling with no one around, etc. Family members of mine have experienced strange happenings including my father and youngest sister seeing the same ghost in one of our past homes. I can't help but to believe they exist.

I believe in my tarot cards. First off, a lot of people mistake tarot cards for psychic tools. In sense you they can be considered that, but I'm talking a hardcore-predict-the-future psychic tool. Many people think tarot card are suppose to predict your future and we'll go ahead and thank fake people like Ms. Cleo for this. This isn't the case though. Tarot cards are supposed to be guidance with your life. They're suppose to open your eyes to what's around you and show you paths to take that will help you move along with your current life phase. I believe they work because I have used them on myself and on others and they have proved themselves to work in my eyes, as long as those in which they are being read for are truly focusing on things and giving the cards a chance. They don't work on those who go into a reading thinking there's no chance of them
working. You have to put trust and focus into them. I have The Fairy Ring deck. They usually hit the nail on the head for me. They work for me so I do believe in tarot cards.

The bottom line is, I don't have a religion, but despite what people think when I say that, I do have faith. I believe in many things, some stated above. I believe that just because you cannot see something or even touch it, don’t mean it's not there. Something has to be here or else I don't see what purpose we hold to even exist?
