Finally, I am a creature of breaking habits. Spontanaity rather than ritual for me. If I get into a ritualised rut I seek to break it.

For me, life is most exciting when the rules change, when the boundaries move, and when the unexpected occurs.

OOh, I just saw this bit. Now I'm mad! (not really.... ) But I am the most spontaneous creature! I don't see what doing a ritual now and then, or meditating has to do more with comfort and security than praying? What I'm talking about is a belief system that doesn't have rules, that changes to reflect the changes that take place in me and my life. What could be more exciting and less stultifying than that?
