I have just be looking through an old journal of mine and just came across my last ever entry - it was back on my birthday on the 16th Oct 2001. I was still active in the church then, but questions and confusion were forming....I tried to leave about 6 months previous, but found it to hard to let go. See what you think.....

- I need to stay focused on what I know is BEST for me
- I should not be unhappy trying to conform to that which is perceived to make others happy
-Remember there are two motives in life: fear and love. Your motive should always be for love
-Just live your life! There is a 'personal plan' for each of us and I cannot expect to do what others do and always expect it to work for me
- I need to hold on to my own theology - my 'testimony' isn't necessarily weak or wrong, just different.

Sounds like you have a clear understanding of the meaning of life...especially YOUR life.
