Please explain.
What you search for...what you've found. It could be anything. There are no right or wrong answers.

Found what I was looking for. But as life goes on, we all find new things to search for. For me, I first found myself. You have to know who you are and who you want to be, before you can be open to new things.

I've found some of the answers I was searching for, but I have other questions that remain unanswered. The search never ends, nor should it, not while life continues.
I was a person in search of a way to live a moral life, help others in the way many churches do, and yet not have to pretend to believe in all the mystical superstitions and meaningless dogmas that I did not. I found my answer in secular humanism. Now I can live ethically, express my compassion for my fellow man, and still live by the guidance of reason. What's more, through the Humanist Community I helped to found, I have worked hard to forge alliances with those same religious people that I have always so admired. Now we work together to try to make the world a little better.

I found it some time ago. Since I was in my late teens, I had questioned the Methodist values I had been brought up on. I clung to them for another few years while doing some soul-searching and "trying on" different beliefs to see if I found any that suited me. It was during this time that I read about Wicca.
They believed a lot of things that I had always, in my heart, felt were true, so I began to study Wicca in earnest, learning more about it. For a while, making the transition was difficult. I liked what the Craft had to teach me, but 18 years of conditioning didn't give way easily. It wasn't until about 14 years ago when I finally managed to shed the last vestiges of Christianity and embrace the path I believe I was meant to follow.
The final step came when I asked the God and Goddess for some sign that this was right for me. A short time later, I stepped outside and saw a quadruple rainbow in the sky! Since then, I have never doubted my beliefs.

Remember the future was one "advise" I got along the way, It is like a movie another one of those comments //
Still looking for my memory... I have found what I am looking for, to my surprise it was Jesus, I have become truely a believer, in a different way than I see others believe../Now it is only to go Home, still have to get there or see I am there.. So I have found the Love of my life and we are trying our best to make wrongs right so we can be together again..and we go for a happily ever after..It has been quite a struggle but we did it all for the glory of Love..(God)..
Love
PS Christ tells us in a U2 song He still has not found what He is looking for, we all should strive to show Him what He is looking for..

I have my toes in the door of what I have been seeking. The search is never completely over. For years I had a recurrent dream of wandering, barefoot, penniless and usually not knowing where I was or how to get 'home'. I've stopped dreaming those dreams. I have found the process to find the answer.

I found the meaning to life, why I am here, why I exist. Jesus Christ is the meaning to me.
I know that God had his hand in my life since I was a child. I was sent to church so my parents could sleep in on Sundays, and 1st accepted the Lord at age 7. Walked away at 13, because my parents didn't go to church and thought why should I? I lived like the devil and rebelled against my parents. I got tired of my lifestyle and became born-agian at 19.
Since I've accepted the Lord it hasn't been a cake walk, but worth it all.

I believe I have found the truth in Christ, but I'm always searching for more truth. I believe you can search a lifetime and still come up with questions that you would like answered.

no, not searching. Thank goodness I didn't have to search, I am completely contented with what I have. I have Jesus, He found me, and He is my best friend. He will never leave me and He loves me more than anyone ever could. He gives peace to my heart and joy to my soul. Joy is stronger than happiness. Happiness depends on someone or something, and is fleeting. Joy and contentment are much better than mere happiness.

Throughout the years of my life I have been able to find everything I have sought. All the tangibles came. These past 5 or so years I have been looking for answers to the Big Questions and I am finding them as well. I suppose you could call it seeking the Truth. As this stuff unfolds, some of it ain't pretty but there is so much that is.Thanks for asking this question.

I've been searching for material for a class this afternoon, and I've found it. So now, I'm relaxing here a little, before I go to work.
