Hi all,
Still going strong with the meditation here :-)

An area which I'm sure will be improving as I meditate more is relationships. I've had a few short-lived ones in the past year, after going 20 years without any relationships. That's how oppressed I've been!

One thing I've always wondered is what type of people do FHU meditators end up marrying? We don't seem to fit into any group. I know in my case that I'm too moral-minded for the left-wing, New Age type of woman, who is initially excited by my spiritual inclinations and the fact that I'm not a church-goer. But her interest fades when she finds out I still embrace Christianity and read the Bible.

On the other hand, I met a Christian rural homesteading woman with four daughters. They wear long dresses and have homeschooling and no TV. Radicals! This is right up my alley! However, unless our discussions included Jesus and the Bible, she began to judge me. Like I wasn't enough of a Christian if I didn't spout verses and chapters constantly. My radical views about law and Christianity bothered her, and then her rebuke would be that our focus should be on Jesus and not all these worldly things. She was rather humorless and just didn't get my lightheartedness.

So if the Christians won't have us and we don't want the new-agers, who do we find? Who have you found? Or is the whole question moot because if we're meditating then God will bring us the mate that we seek?
