What everybody said. You may end up with a more mature version of your current faith, or with a different faith or find that you can live fine without what most consider to be faith. But you will end up somewhere you will be happy with.

Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Thank you, Erin, so much. I really appreciate your advice.
And yes, I think there are at least two levels of goods on which I have a pretty good stand in: my taste in music, and academic arguments. I can feel what's "good" there.
I remember reading, long time ago in a forgotten book, about a woman who went to her teacher saying that she'd lost her love for Krishna. The teacher asked her what she did love. She said she loved her little nephew more than life. The teacher said, In your love of your nephew you will find Krishna.
Anyway, I think that, if God is love/a loving creator, whatever you love can lead you to him.
Ok, in shallow news, I am now calling the doctor to beg, plead, wail (nicely) for The Sleep Drug That Works.
Wish me luck!
ETA: Aaaand, after waiting all weekend to make this call, I leave a voice mail. Oh. Yay.
Good luck, Erin!
Much ~ma for Perkins this morning.
Ah, not a GPS. If you don't have a GPS, you look for a map. If no map, the sun. If no sun, the moss on trees. Or memory. Or a compass. Or ask someone.
Seriously, have I mentioned? You are awesome.
Much surgery ~ma to Perkins!
May the move go smoothly, Seska.
Surgery~ma, Perkins and best possible findings~ma!
Seska, moving~ma for your and TG.
I don't see God/ess as The Being Who Makes Good Things Happen, but more The Ultimate Shoulder to Cry On. S/he's got my back (but does occasionally delay the bus that extra two minutes that lets me catch it instead of having to wait an hour).
