What was the best decision you ever made? – Niki
Even with my hope to keep authenticity alive, I try not to write about too many controversial things here. Octolilly is where I write about the art of my everyday. Or how awesome my kid is. Not where I wince before pressing publish.
But to answer this question truthfully, I have to breathe deeply and hope you, dear reader, can handle the honesty of my answer. You may not like it, and that’s alright. But please respect it.
The best decision I ever made was walking away from Fundamentalism and religion in general.
At times I close my eyes and venture into the mind of the girl I once was and remember how fearful life without God seemed. I was terrified that on the other side of religion was an unbearable life of confusion and loneliness. It hasn’t been like that at all.
In fact, you might say, science saved my soul.
