What IS it about this song that brings me to tears whenever I hear it? It really touches something in me.
I don't consider myself a religous person. At one point I might have, but not anymore. I've journeyed so far from the traditional realm of theology in my belief. Sacreligious thoughts that would have me thrown out of most conventional churches (of just about any religion).
Deep down I don't think any religion has it right, there seem to be truths in each of them. Peices of each that resonate deeply in my soul, and others that strike unharmonious chords.
In general I find the most in common with Christianity - but is that just because that was the religion in which I was raised? ... maybe ...probably. I don't know.
I do believe there is something bigger out there, an all present energy, force. Omnipotent, omniscient, timeless.
I'm starting this now... I think because I'm feeling an awakening in my soul... a thirst for something deeper and more meaningful in my life.
