Some time in my teens I became aware that my mother doubts and hid them. That was one of a number of pieces that made me run... Honesty and openness would have gone a long way...

Keep seeking those real conversations, and speaking out!

Decades later, I have returned to faith (not to church...yet...) I do find that reading the thoughtful writers really helps me to feel not alone, and am slowly building. I do think building has to take place inwardly and out. Peace--
