Spirituality
Family & Caregivers / by powerfulEast1407

...See more I was born into an Irish Catholic heritage, I went to Catholic schools and by the end of my schooling (I only attended religious events to satisfy my family) By grade 12 (Australia) I was over it and didn't believe. As an adult I've found peace in Buddhism. How do I start to explore my own beliefs and follow my own path when living with family who don't follow the same beliefs. I would love to connect with others who believe in any spiritual growth. (Please don't feel like you can't comment because of your beliefs, I'm interested in hearing it all)

...See more I know it's not a forever situation how I am really struggling with living in one room with my kids and having to share a house with my mum. I desperately need my own place but it's not possible. I can't get into a routine and be my own parent to my kids. Trying not to be ungrateful but I'm struggling.
