VISIT WITH MY AUNT......

Hi everybody! I just got home from my visit with my aunt. She lives about 3 hrs. from here. I stayed 5 days. I had a really good visit with her. She's about 74, & you'd never know it. She walks everywhere, takes trips to the nearby city with her friends. She's very active. We had a very good visit, stayed busy, a talked ALOT! I need to vist her more often. I just got back today. She doesn't have her computer hooked up, so was unable to blog, or check my emails. I went to bible study with her, cuz she wanted me to. Talked to me alot about starting going to church, so I told her I'd give it a try....again. I've never gotten God in church before, maybe it will be different this time, who knows. The bible study was interesting, I had my say, which I'm not sure they liked. I wasn't rude, but posed some questions. The bible has never given me answers, but I agreed to go to bible study. Maybe I'll get something out of it this time. I didn't like the scripture they read, at all. The bible is so misinterpreted, I think it's too confusing, doesn't seem to talk an awful lot about love, unconditional love. But then, I haven't read the whole thing. Maybe a bible study will give me a better understanding. But look at the atrocities that are done in the name of God, & the bible. I just don't understand, & I think the bible is hard to understand. It is not good to take it literaly, I know that, but some religions do. I have a hard time with religions too. I have decided not to have a closed mind concerning this tho. The steps teach me to have an open mind. I'll keep you informed. I'll write more lateer, just wanted to let you all know I'm back. I missed you all.

It has taken me years of recovery to even be open to the Bible. Now I am open because all my literature points to the same ways of living. Chritian, Buddhist, 12 Step and others have many many of the same principles. But it took time to get in a comfort zone with it. For me :)

Have a great day~
