....to you. I don't have a God...seen too much suffering to believe in one. If I had to pick a religion it would be Buddhism but the chances of me giving up bacon make that a non starter. But I like to think I have a strong spirituality at my core...so as we face 2014 and all of its joys and challenges I send you...my friends... this my favourite blessing. Jintz xxx
May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face;
the rains fall soft upon your fields and until we meet again,
may God hold you in the palm of His hand. |

You're right....I don't. But you may....so the wish I have for you is that YOUR God is with you. I have faith in the power of good over evil and that sustains me. I wish you all good things in the year ahead also . xx "
When I look at the mirror then look at your pics, I think you n me must have the same creator x |

I don't recall anything in Buddhism about not eating bacon.
They're not keen on multiple sexual partners though |

I believe it is "preferred" for Buddhists not to eat meat...I may be wrong. As for your second point...well, if im not prepared to give up the bacon??......... |

Depends on which flavour of buddhism you follow. Therevada for instance would have you eating once a day (mindfully) the food that your locals had given you. Couldrbe fish fingers and custard |

Not the slightest bit religious or follow any faith although do prescribe to the majority of christian morals.
I firmly believe that we are in charge of our own destiny and that there is no "higher power" watching out for us.

How well did you love?
How fully did you live?
How deeply did you let go?”
