I think I've said this before, but one of the big plus points of my job is the view. Most of the day for most of the year, I have to stare at the concrete monstrosity that is UWE, but at this time of year, I get the benefit of very cool sunsets.

Tonight we have a blue-grey sky, with small peach and pink clouds and some wisps of red and purple :)

Good point about crucifixes and the 10 commandments. How do you "find your own spirituality". Did you actively seek it, or just become comfortable with the things you believe?

Garlic I eat on everything. I love garlic

Aha - not a vampire then. Or at least, not a cheesy stereotype of a vampire, anyway ;)

How do you "find your own spirituality"

Personally I started reading cultural histories and religious texts (Dhammapada, Rig Veda, Qu'ran, Bible, etc...). I found that in every text there were a few simple tenets given in order to "live a good life". Some are so similar in wording that they are probably derived from the same source. Eventually something just clicked for me and I had a belief system that fits with my knowledge and emotions. It just fits for me. I really suggest everyone go through a search for religion and develop their own beliefs since it was such a positive and calming experience for me (and my mom I found out a couple years ago).

Thank you - it's always nice to see an example of that approach working. Gives me impetus to get off my backside and read some difficult stuff :)
