Thanks so much for stopping by and sharing your thoughts.kandscreeley wrote: ↑20 Mar 2019, 08:24 I have seen so many memoirs where people are able to rise above their circumstances; it's inspiring for anyone going through a rough time. Still, I don't usually read memoirs unless it really catches my eye. I'm glad that you were able to find inspiration in this one despite some minor issues. Thanks.

You can spend your time however you want, but you can spend it only once.

Thanks for the comment. There are many people who feel that certain dogmatic religious beliefs are oppressive. For instance, this author believed that her parents' religious belief in the following was oppressive and did not feel true: "That if we obey God and our elders, he will reward us if we asked in Jesus name. If we don’t we will be tortured in the Lake of Fire for all eternity."
Many people find this to be oppressive and have sought solace in more love-based spiritual practices. I hope this helps explain it.
