Spiritual path

Last night, hubby and I took a walk and we talked. I've been doing meditation for over two years now and was wondering if he saw any change in me, since the reason I started this was because my osteo strongly suggested that I started meditation, because my body was simply not letting go. I was fighting his treatments, so he thought meditating would help be release some tensions.

I joined the group where a friend have been going for over 18 years. At first I was unsure. I was biased a little against it. What was it exactly, what did we do there, etc. When I first joined the group (who's made of all types, "normal" people) I thought it was weird (I still think that anyway!), but I liked the teachings the teacher was giving. He's an interesting man, with quite interesting views. In sitting there in silence, repeating my mantra I realised that I was on a spiritual path that I wasn't really aware I was on.

Yesterday, hubby said it in such a way that I was surprised by his "arm chair psychologist" way:
I was at a crossroads in my spiritual quest. I didn't know what I believed or who I believed. Attending group helped me see that there are certains things that I do not want, so I've been eliminating some things. I might be (I am!) confused still, but at least I'm taking off layers I don't need, and that is a good thing. Some progress have been made.

I don't know if meditating helps, but that time is spent in quiet and it is calming so... can't be bad!

Today I read Scott Adams' Blog, and it was a very interesting post, to me at least (and to hubby I'm sure when he'll read it). If you have a chance read it (click on the link above, it will bring you right to it). It's about relativity... and God.

I wonder if one day, I'll ever have comments like he does (over 200 on each posts)?
Don't think I'd want that, because unlike Mr. Adams I would answer them!
...but I do love reading your comments!
