Some background to my spiritual path

Once upon a time (in April of this year) tenacious_snail asked me, "How did you come to be involved with the Society of Friends? What is your spiritual journey? "

I kept putting off answering that to when i could do it justice, which is the general mode of my procrastination. Yesterday, i saw the meme from batswing that asks

The problem with LJ: we all think we are so close, but really, we know nothing about each other. So I want you to ask me something you think you should know about me. Something that should be obvious, but you have no idea about. Ask away.

Then post this in your LJ and find out what people don't know about you.

I figured i should answer the last question, first, since what with "The Death of LJ" being a constant theme showing up in a variety of places, i shouldn't waste any questions.

And, after a call from my sister and some unhappy physical experiences, i must get off to my day!
