No big secrets here! I just keep trying to live life to the best of my limited ability as it presents itself. I believe that the independent investigation of truth is the best way for developing an effective belief system and not by following the dictates of another, especially if its only validation is that it is tradition ...

2.) O peoples of the earth! Verily the resplendent Light of God hath appeared in your midst, invested with this unerring Book, that ye may be guided aright to the ways of peace and, by the leave of God, step out of the darkness into the light and onto this far-extended Path of Truth.  (Compilations, Fire and Light, p. 15) ...

3.) No matter how degraded an alcoholic may be, there abides somewhere deep within him, a deathless urge to reach out of the sordidness, deceit, folly, ignorance, and sham of this world to grasp that elusive something that spells kinship with the lovely in life.  - Father John Doe ...
