Hi Joseph, I am not sure even how I got here, but know that it is meant to be. My spiritual quest has been thrust into high gear and I am somewhat overwhelmed with it. More specifically, I have been buying books(galore) and music, searching web sites... comparing, finding commonality and differences between, evaluating and experiencing, fiction vs non-fiction, religious vs religious fiction, psychic and mediumship. But the instinctive urge, persistant questions and spirit driven finds are undisputably real to me. It seems I find the exact needed words or songs at the exact needed time to explain my inner questions. Then, a more practical side of my mind throws in doubts, skepticism and fear. The confusion of where am I going with this, is this all made to fit because I want it to be made to fit, sets in and I begin to lose the ground I've gained in my deepening insight to my own spiritual inner being and finding my purpose. My question to you is, how can I overcome the negative doubting, the roadblock to the open mindedness needed to evolve?
