Now this may be the wrong area but here goes. Where are you in your spiritual quest? Are you content with your search? Have you found peace within your soul? Have you connected with your past and looking forward to your other life? In my case my spiritual quest continues, even after 25 years of Druidry. I still feel i can learn from others and that there is something missing within. As for my search i feel content that i am doing my best and that rewards will come my way, and that the peace my soul looks for will come. As for my past, i am very connected and in touch with my ancestors and am looking forward some day to joining them in the next world. I have had a peek at it, and it looks exciting. Even though it will be awhile.

Where are you in your spiritual quest? I have had a long and uncertain quest that is just beginning to settle down and start making sense. I still have a lot of confusion running amok in my head. The childhood whispers of what I’m doing is wrong still raise their ugly head. I still doubt myself even though I know I am on the right path now.
Are you content with your search? I am very happy with where I am right now. I am able to be myself and do what I want to do and not feel compelled to answer to another’s bidding. I can have my altar in plain sight and not hidden away. I can do rituals and magic and not be laughed at. I am learning more and more every day, and gaining confidence in my abilities as well as in myself. This is where I need to be, and want to be right now. Alone but not lonely, free to be me.
Have you found peace within your soul? There are many things in my life that I am not at peace with. I don’t know if I will ever overcome some of the issues preventing me from attaining this goal. I have fe Where are you in your spiritual quest? Are you content with your search? Have you found peace within your soul? Have you connected with your past and looking forward to your other life?ars that have been so ingrained into my being that I don’t know if I can conquer them. Hopefully I will travel down my path long enough and far enough to get beyond these issues. I am trying to look on the positive side of things so I can grow spiritually.
Have you connected with your past and looking forward to your other life? I do not know much about this subject, so I haven’t worked on this. However, I do believe that some of what I’m going through and facing are penalties from a past life. Once my lessons have been learned, my debt compensated, my punishment fulfilled, paid the price for whatever I did wrong, then I will be shown where to go from here.

Where are you in your spiritual quest? I have only just begun my spiritual quest, and definately have much to learn in these coming years. At the moment, I feel that I am uneducated and unexperienced as far as my spirituality goes, but with time, I hope to grow stronger. I do not know, yet, where my quest will lead me, or what is is exactly, but I know that in time, I will find out, and it may not happen in this lifetime either.
Are you content with your search? Well, I have only been practicing for little over a year, and as I said before, I still have much to learn. I am not yet content with my search yet, however I know that within the future, my opinion will change. My goal is not to unlock all the secrets to the universe, afterall, only to become more intune to the world around me, and Nature, as well.
Have you found peace within your soul? I do not believe that I have found peace within my soul, but as I keep saying, I know that one day I will. Up until last year, my goal was not to find peace within my soul. In fact, I had no goals. I was lost and wandering, having strayed far from my path. Now I am working to find my path and find my place once more.
Have you connected with your past and looking forward to your other life? I do not have any experience here. I have connected with the past of my current life, but do not have any knowledge of an actual past life, or if I do, I do not know it. I am not necessarily looking forward to my future life, but here, in my present being, I am working to better my life condition to prepare for the next life.

I was never on a spiritual quest....my spirituality has always been there since childhood. It hasn't changed in all that time. I never felt the need to look elsewhere for something 'different to try'.
The big difference in the last few years, is discovering other like-minded people that share my path.
I read a lot and most of what I read merely confirms what I knew all along, but couldn't put into words.

I feel that as long as I am able to practice my craft freely, I am settled inside. One thing that I struggle with though, is trying not to kill myself trying to learn it all at once. I am 22 and I want to know everything tomorrow. Having said that, it must sound like a contradiction to say that I don't feel as if I am just beginning my spiritual quest. I have been traveling my path all of my life, whether I knew it or not. I am content with who I am now. I am content to know that I will never stop searching for answers to my endless questions and I am content to know that I have the freedom to do so. As far as my past goes. I have learned so much from it. I used to get depressed, wishing I could change my actions so that I could be happier. Now I know that I need just sit back and learn from my past. Not to feel cheated, but to enjoy life now. Being angry about my past will make me miss a lot in the present. I am extremely happy with all that I've learned, and I am anxious to learn more. Thanks Riverman
