Call for religion

Okay before I get into my topic for tonight, I wanted to let you all know about how my relationship is going.  Charlie is the love of my life.  I can say that with 100% confidence.  If anyone knows me, they know I don't throw that word around, and very few people outside of my immediate family have ever hear that from.  But I see charlie as a member of my immediate family.  He is the nicest kindest, and most gentle person I have ever been around.  I love to lay in bed and listen to him snore or cuddle my arms around him and fall asleep to his sweet serenade.  I have been away from him for a week now, and am missing him more and more with each passing minute.  I am on the way home now, and can't wait to see him again.

Okay that is enough mush for now.  I need to talk about a serious topic tonight. 

The topic of religion has come up again in the truck ride home.  Instead of bursting out with my opinion, i opted to sit back and listen to the banter of a couple of guys go back and forth about their believes.  I have pretty to much come to the conclusion that I am lost in my religion right now.  I have always been brought up as a christian,  first as Presbyterian, then as Methodist.  I will admit there are things I understand and don't understand from both perspectives.  But I am not sure what shoe box of a religion I fit in....if any.  

I have some core believes,  I believe in "God" or a higher power than us.  I believe in Jesus, the son of God. I understand his purpose and that he has died, paying the ultimate price for our sins.  I believe that there is more to life than that of our physical being.  I don't know if I believe that our souls resign in heaven/hell for the rest of eternity, or if we come back in another physical form to do it all over again.

I have had a crazy thought when I was younger that; maybe we are given a body to live and learn about Christ and to earn our way into Heaven to live eternally as a freed spirit,  free of the stresses of every day life, free of wondering what you have to do to make sure that you can always put food on the table.  But if for some reason you lived a great life, had all the fun you wanted.  followed your own rules, damn the consequences.  That life choice would win you another trip back to the beginning of life to do it again and see if you can get it right the second...third....5,000th time.

I don't really know where I am with my faith, but I am willing to hear people out.  I guess I am on a spiritual quest and looking for guidance.  

I welcome a Facebook discussion on this one.

The love of my life

Hello again bloggers.

Sorry it has been so long since I have made a post, it has been a busy life for me lately.

Charlie,  He is the good in my life....in fact he is the great in my life.  For everyone that has ever known me and for those that have ever dated me, Male of Female, you all know that I do not through the "L" word around at all.  I will only ever say it to someone that I really feel that way about.   Well after many years of being alone, I am no more.  Charlie is so wonderful and he is the one that I have given the love word to.  I love him so much and can't image how my life was so fulfilled without him.

He is only a few years younger than me.  He is very straight forward and honest about his feelings, likes and dislikes.  And to top it off he loves me too.  He is the greatest.  He loves my dog, and has two wonderful dogs of his own.  Of course if you ask him, his dogs are rotten, but they are not to me.

He has nick named my little apartment as the Tree House, so most of the time we spend together is at his place.

As far as everything else, it is going great.  My photography is going really really well,  I just won an award on Pixoto.com tonight for the top 10% for the year.  I got a raise at work, and soon I will be looking at a house to settle into.

Well I will let you go for now.  I hope you enjoy my blog.  I will try and keep my blog more current.
