Ultimately, my story is God / Creator's story and I'm playing a character in God's play.
In many ways, I had an idyllic childhood and in some ways, I had a hellish childhood. Is it possible to have both? I think so. I think many of us have these two seemingly polar opposite experiences.
As a child, I suffered immensely because I did not have a model or understanding of life and was very much at the effect of those around me.
I have Eastern European ancestry and in that, suffering is a way of life. It is accepted and even revered.
But, as a child, I had one quality that made life magical for me. Pretty much anything that I dreamed of came to me. I noticed that my life was different than others. I would look around at my life compared to others and I may have had pain, but I didn't suffer. The opportunities and accomplishments that came to me and that I achieved as a child, were way beyond any logical explanation. I had magic of some sort. People noticed it. It wasn't just me that thought so. People often called me the golden child. And I also lost it.
My life's journey has been to understand that magic that I had and why I lost it.
I have come to understand that magic as living for truth. And have dedicated my life to understanding truth; sharing and teaching truth to others so they can also have magic.
The Saint for Truth is not a canonized religious figure, but rather a spiritual archetype -- someone who devotes their life, words, and it represents a state of consciousness rather than a title.
