I have absolutely no idea how any of it might work, no real theories...the whole thing about positive thoughts/energy in our brains helping us heal/creating better things for us, vs negative thought patterns/illness...all that! No idea! But it's cool. I guess some people might assign that to a god/spirit, but that's not how I was raised, and I'm fine with not having any handy explanation for it except Science We Don't Understand. So yes, in short. Ha.

It's all one and the same to me, I just assign it a gender and a personality whereas you just believe in energies outside ourselves and not one booming I Am ruling over all of it... I think I got that right. Right?

So, part of me also goes "cooooool, I wish I believed in stuff like that." I mean, I do read Tarot cards and things, but I sort of explain it away with quantum physics and the whole "energy we don't yet understand" thing. Ack. Not sure where I'm going with that, but...I'm glad you're happy and doing good things for yourself!
