Right there with you, but instead a Southern, evangelical Christian tradition priming me for the world of woo. My current spiritual path is paved with an eclectic mix of traditions-- which is challenging to reconcile at times.

You are not alone in the Woowoo, so glad I stumbled upon your stack today. I'm calling it divine guidance.

Oh boy. I love, love, love that you are not letting fear win. It is so easy to do the opposite in the current climate. And so essential to run toward your Highest Expression of God-Source-Light in YOU! I also grew in MA - and hated it. I said I'd move back only if G-d dragged me kicking and screaming. Instead a still small voice called me in the midst of a traumatic first marriage (I was in college and was preggers - having got knocked up six weeks after the wedding - I had had tried my best to be an evangelical Christian...weirdly more Christ stuff makes sense now that I'm as you say, WOO WOO - but that's another story. I moved back to the Greater Boston Area and was led to a tiny Methodist church (well relatively tiny) where I met my beloved. We've been married twenty years and have three kids, two dogs and a cat. I've been having visions of the cat I expect to join us soon. We will see. After not having access to an account, this week I transcended and shed some layers in order to get the help I needed to be able to access stuff I had already purchased. Today I visited an old course I did in which, in the vision exercise we met our higher self and our inner child. Now interestingly, Eagle just popped in for me this week, having forgotten about this vision.

Thank you for this! It's a funny dance we do, wondering how people perceive us and changing to fit the mold. Then one day, you realize that that part of you IS who you are. Took me til I was 40 something - so you're way ahead of the curve. Embrace the Woo! xo

Cheers to DIY spirituality! I teared up reading this. So beautiful that you shared poetry with your mom and that youā€™re listening to that still small voice. šŸ©·
