#8: A picture of someone you lost touch with

This one from the list may be a bit controversial but I picked this because it's true.

I haven't lost touch with a someone, but a something:

Organized religion and church have not been a part of my life for almost 10 years.

I grew up going to church every single Sunday and most Wednesdays.

I was involved with Christian ministry for most of my adult life.

 I was a straight up church girl, for sure...

 There are many, many reasons why church is no longer a part of me and I am not

going to get into all of this here...

I do want to say, however,  that my spiritual roots and my spiritual journey are still in tact.

 I have a belief system in place.

But church and the what church means is not a part of who I am anymore and I am okay with that.
