Well stated. I, too, do not belong to a specific religion but I have learned a great deal from reading the lives of saints and studying Anthroposophy. I was baptized Catholic as a baby, baptized again as a Protestant, and again as Eastern Orthodox Christian. I'm covered in that department (joking, of course). God is not found in a physical building. He is found inside of each one of us. We are the temple. You sound wise and are walking the narrow path even though it seems you are not aware of it. I have all the same worries that you convey here - currently taking care of my mother full time. Had to change my whole life to keep her at home. Even though I have faith in God, my Creator, I still go through fits of uncertainty. At the end, all will be well with my soul - I know this - and it comforts me. I am not my body as the world so desperately tries to convince us all. The world is an illusion, it is maya, and it lives and thrives in the shadows it creates in order to block out the Sun/Son from our lives. This is what it seeks to destroy in order to keep us slaves to this world and harden our souls to it. Oh, we are such much more and it is our job to discover who we are, why we are here, and where we are going. It's a quest. Stay open and keep moving forward.
