I'm not a religious person.  I went to Catholic school from middle school through high school.  When I went to college, I "experimented" with different religions, but just never felt comfortable or like I fit anywhere.  After college, I attended a few different churches, but again never felt right.  So as of today, I don't attend church and I feel a lot more at peace then when I did.  I never fit in at Catholic churches and also left feeling guilty or as if I would never be able to achieve what the church talked about.  That's not a great feeling when you're leaving church.  There are also many things I don't agree with within the Catholic religion, but I won't get into those. 
Anyway, as it is Easter tomorrow, I am happy.  Not because I went to church and prayed, but because this weekend I have been surrounded by family and friends.  That is what I believe in.  I believe in being happy and surrounding yourself with people who love you.  I have a lot of questions about "religion" but I do think I am spiritual.  I believe in being a good person and loving with all I have.  Not that I get those right every day, but it is still what I strive to accomplish on a daily basis. 
So Happy Easter everyone!  Whatever you believe in or however you celebrate, I hope it's a great day.  Take some time to relax!
