Who is God?

I have found that I, and I feel most people knew more about God when we were 5 years old, than we do now after years of false indoctrination. It seems really crazy, but when I need to know what is really the truth, I go inside myself back to that 5 year old child, and ask him what is really true, and he tells me because he hasn't yet been fed all of the dogma that the churches have been feeding us for the last two thousand years. I'm not saying that everything the world's religions teach is unfounded and untrue, they do teach a lot of valid truth, but a lot of times it gets twisted and shaped to fit a particular dogma or need and a lot of times the powers in control are serving their own egos rather than the needs of their constituents.

Each and every one of us before accepting any belief, or spiritual or moral value,should use our own good judgment and common sense and not go blindly by what some one else has determined to be the truth . We are not lost sheep,destined to follow whoever or whatever belief comes along, rather we are thinking,reasoning light beings capable of making our own sensible well-thought out decisions based up on our own logic. Each and every soul is connected to the God source and is capable of determining what it's connection is to the source. We are here to guide and counsel our fellow human beings, we are not here to force or coerce any one to do anything. If each and everyone of us would remember , and practice this,the world would be a lot better place.



As I began to search to find my God, I began running into people who were having the same concerns, and were asking the same questions that I had been asking. I would develop some type of repertoire with them,only to have  the relationship last for only a short time and then literally dissolve. This became quite frustrating and  it actually took some time before I realized that I was enrolled in the schoolhouse of life, and these new found "truths" were not some new found "fad" or fantasy, but were really a way of finding our way back to the God Source,from which we have all in some way or another removed ourselves,and these truths would eventually help me solve my problems,and lead to a new and better life.

All of these events were going on in my life at a time when my marriage was extremely rocky and through these extremely trying times,! hoped that all of this new learning would improve my family life, little did I then realize that we were slowly drifting farther and farther apart,and the changes, including a happier life,that were coming would follow a lot of soul
searching,contemplation,and also some very trying times.
