Since im new here i thought it would be an interesting topic to share. Im 44 and have been greatly influenced by spirituality most of my life. First it was a high school crush. A cappy and Im Virgo so we meshed well.He was amazingly knowlegeable. I could sit and listen to him for hours and I learned much from him. I found Wayne Dwyer quite by accident( actually he found me) in my early 20's . I have read most of his works and find him to be still one of my favorite guru's. Linda goodman of course, and Richard Bach who wrote " Illusions" which is a great book for beginners. I love Louise Hay and she still helps me today. I work in an office and am conservative and have always been but you would be surprised how many conservatives there are in this business world who are highly enlightened. You just have to be careful who you open up to, you can get labled if you trust just anyone. I love to also read a lot of self-help stuff and the older I get the more I find that spiritual stuff is interwoven in that area too. My husb. is probably not as enlightened as I am but he sure is open to it all and that makes a comfortable partnership. He is aries and I think its my aquarian ascendent that is compatible with him. Anyway Im droning on but I wondered what stuff has influenced everyone. I would love to read your stories.

I'm sort of new here too. My sis, who is 13 yrs. older than me and an Aries, is the one who really led me into exploring alternative spiritual ideas. I did however get hooked on Sun Signs at the age of about 16 or 17. I graduated from Silva when I was about 32 and studied everything I could get my hands on from that time on - taking a few excursions under the covers from fear, so to speak, a few times because I let the dogma of religion send me there. However - that worked itself out and now, I know it for what it is and I have declared myself my own Hierophant! LOL.

I'm a Cappy, btw - bowing to your Virgo-ness my fellow earth sign friend.

Welcome to Lindaland......anakhita

HI!
I'm Randall the III. There's another Randall here so I like to distinguish myself.

By the way Randall, I don’t know much about you. You should tell sometime. I see so many of your posts, but lets see the content of your heart.

Okay Thirteen… It all started with a high school crush? Truly, that is cool. I’m a high schooler. But please don’t mistake me for an ordinary immature one. I am learning, but I feel like I have a great wealth of spiritual knowledge in my soul. It started when My consciousness began to expand in my pre-teen years. I don’t know what happened. I just knew things no one had ever taught me. like philosophy and such, the human heart and the like… I’m fairly inexperienced in the physical aspect in reality, but I’m only 17… I am a photographer though. I have a pretty extensive reach on photography in general. My Photo friend says if I go to collage for photography I’d be board. My spiritually journey is pretty… Hmmm… Crazy right now. I can’t seem to find anyone to share it with besides a few of my close adult friends. I have more close adult friends than I do my own age. So I learn from them and love every minute of it. I think my one spiritual goal in my life is to be beautiful. I mean Lovely, you know like radiant, I know I have it in me, somewhere, I’m just searching right now, I know beauty, I just have to figure out how to say it… I want to share it.

I had a crush this last year, she was amazing, I haven’t had a chance to really hang out with her though. She’s one of those persons, Radiant.

RIII

P.S. Me’s a Pisces, nice to met you Virgo! I mix well with Virgos.

Oh and also… I find the world can be a cruel, hard place sometimes. I find refuge in Linda Land. The people here are so radiant. The life here is flowing and the love is wonderful, So if you feel the same way, share with me and the others here, I know it is safe.

I'm a conservative; I don't have a heart.

Hi Randall III, A pisces? I love Pisces, they are the old souls of the planet.They don't judge others and that is what I like so much. My sister is one and my last boss was one and all i can say is i loved him. I was going thru a real bad time and i would be dreaming and he would show up in the dream. Just his presence would calm me. No words were exchanged in the dream and I always sensed that he was an angel of some sort. I do understand how hard it is to be young and enlightened and not be able to relate to anybody your own age. I hung out with older people in high school. I still do to an extent but you will find that at some point in getting older things will balance out some. Its funny, my sister likes photography also and she is paired up with a virgo. Pisces and virgo are opposites on the astrology wheel and so they attract. They tend to admire the qualities of the other as they know they need to adapt those qualities into themselves. I find that to be so true , that I admire the pisces folks I have known in my life, both males and females.

If you do a bit of searching, you will find lots of older posts from our Beloved webmaster Randall, that will enlighten you more about his beliefs. But just a little. Randall is the owner, operator, CEO, CFO and even the clean-up guy at LindaLand. This beautiful haven is his baby.

My spiritual journey here on earth began with birth...just like everybody else. I am only an egg...as are we all.

Randall's old posts help a lot in understanding some of what Linda taught, and also a lot of truth in a nutshell, I would recommend doing a scavenger hunt in Universal Codes.
