Imagine: One Man’S Journey

By James G. Cullinane

Finally, Ive arrived at a place where Im comfortable with the concept of God, not as something or someone in human form but a force, a source that touches all lifemaybe not unlike a gentle breeze that sweeps across the planet touching all in its pathand, if we allow, in good and empowering ways.

I believe also that this is an ongoing process and that this physical life is but a tiny, teeny part of our journey. Our soul is immortal; the physical body will deteriorate and die, but the soul journeys on.

My life has been a slow, slow process of understanding and accepting the uniqueness of each and every life, the potential that each and every one carries within us, the importance of being positive especially in our thoughts, which translate into reality and the life we live, the importance of love and forgiveness to ourselves and others, and the absolute importance of connecting with God. This God force is always ready, willing, and more than able to answer our prayers.
