A religious moment

As some know, I'm not the most religious person in the world. I'm spiritual (which to some is just a cop out), but not a church goer, or a "believer".

But I try not to let it make a difference in my daily doings, etc. If you want to believe, I'm perfectly ok with that.

Last night before I sent to bed, I was listening to my collection of songs. And this one came up.


It's the theme song to Vicar of Dibley, and I have converted it to an MP3.

Anyways, late at night I'm listening to this song. I remembered that I always liked it and wanted to see if there were other versions of it. There are others, but this one was by a group called the Choirboys (out of England). I looked for other versions, can came across this one.



This one, which is a different version of the same song, has better harmonies in it (I'm a big fan of harmonies). Even though there is a part where one of the singers screws up, I enjoyed it. And as I watched it, all the sudden some overwhelming sense of happiness and elation came over me. Almost as if I was being over taken by a powerful force, that provided me with a sense of belonging and security that I was lacking.

It made me wonder if that's what "finding the light" is all about. It was a wondrous feeling, that's for sure. It put me at ease, and comforted me in a time when I was feeling uneasy, and unsure about some things.

In a way, it was like it provided a sense of purpose.

I'm not sure it did anything long term to me, but it was a nice moment.
