Liked this a lot, Harry. You summed it up nicely in only 15 syllables to boot. I agree wholeheartedly with your premise. Everything starts from within.
Well said.
Well done.

I think you're right. The most spiritual connection for most people seems to be through nature and the appreciation of it. "Trappings" could have a double meaning, as trapped within traditional religion. Good for some, but not for everyone. People find a closeness to God in different ways. Marilyn

Thank you for the read and the kind words. I am tired of people telling me I have to go to church to be spiritual.

Hi;
thank you for sharing your fifteen syllable work for the contest. Your words flow smooth, and even more importantly convey a message I can wholeheartedly agree with,

Good luck in the contest.

Thank you. I am tired of Institutional religion. The more I observe the clergy, the less I see them as "Chirst-like."
