Returning to Perth

I grew up in Perth, Australia. As a child and then an adolescence, I was overshadowed by the religion with which my parents projected on me. I was raised with very rigid rules and regulations which gave me no choice but to conform and to adopt my parents beliefs that were constantly being programmed into me. This impacted tremendously me as I grew up. As a result of me not being able to express my own opinions, emotions and having very little opportunities to develop socially, my entire well being suffered. I has so much difficulty making friends at all my schools, and I felt I didn’t fit in anywhere or with anyone. Even at the age of 19, I developed a belief that I was incapable of having a girlfriend.
But, one night, all of that changed for me when I had a spiritual awakening in 99′. For the first time of my life, I connected deeply within. I felt the presents of a higher self. Grace entered my life and I experienced the oneness of all things. I felt the presence of an energy and love that was always within myself and it’s beyond anything I can put into words or anything I couldn’ve ever imagined. From that night on, I knew that there was a greater truth for me to explore and experience. I left the church where I grew up, left Australia and became world traveler seeking others who have had the spiritual awakening as I have had. My excitement and energy has never waned. My journey around the world was intentional were I wanted a more global perspective of the world, I wanted to find out if my truth was the same as others truth.
My trip, my long journey was amazing and very enlightening. I learned so much about humanity, different ways of life, cultures, I made many many friends from all over the globe. But, more important, I learned about myself. About 2 and a half years into my travelling, my intuition told be to come back home. I made reservations at one of the Perth boutique hotels, near where my folks live. I didn’t want to hurt them more than I already have, but I did want to thank them and let them know just how much I love them, even though I know I’ve disappointed them, but I want to let them know that they have not disappointed me, but mostly, I want to introduce them to my wife.
