My high school experience:
As stereotypical as it may sound, I was painfully trying to find acceptance in the popular crowd in high school. I tried subtlety changing my attitude, behavior and appearance to conform to the group I wished to please.

My spiritual journey:
I've always thought about God - even if I didn't have a conclusion about it.
I remember when I was 7 years old, I was sitting on a fence when a neighbor girl came up to me and asked me out of the blue, "Do you believe in God?" I didn't know what I believed, so I covered... >Read More
