The purpose of this book is to share with whomever wants to read it, my simple spiritual journey from childhood through today. This is a journey with numerous peaks and valleys, but with no burning bushes, awesome spiritual experiences, or extraordinary miracles. I am a convinced and passionate Catholic who profoundly respects people who have chosen other Christian denominations, non-Christian religions, or no religion at all. They may be close members of my family, relatives or friends. I unconditionally love them and will never destroy a bridge, build a wall or close a gate that unite us; and I expect to be treated the same way. I am no better or worse than anyone else, and my spiritual journey is no different from other peoples journey who were in similar circumstances, such as living in a country where an aggressive, official atheism was an integral part of the political structure and later becoming immigrant in another country, learning a new language, adapting to a new way of life and continuing this earthly pilgrimage. In this journey, I havenow as beforethe support and companionship of my loving, compassionate and spiritually correct wife.
