For most of my life, I identified as atheist. This past year, however, something shifted.

A few things happened that pushed me onto my spiritual journey. First, it seemed that all the new people coming into my life were spiritual. My whole life, I had been closed off to believing in any sort of higher power.

Have you ever wondered what influence you have on the world around you? We sometimes forget that singing HU, the ancient love song to God, leaves a powerful impression on our environment. We’re not always around to see its effects, but one experience from many years ago brought home this realization and left a lasting impression on me.

“By all means, marry. If you get a good wife, you’ll become happy;
if you get a bad one, you’ll become a philosopher.”
Socrates

Our friend, Rich, understands that every situation can be viewed in a positive light. “It’s all good,” he says.

At first, I thought he was saying “have a nice day” in a new, catchier way. Rich is cool, you know. But now, I see the phrase as something much more important: a powerful spiritual exercise for healing our past.
