New Guy

Postby dyanaprajna2011 » Tue Mar 19, 2013 6:36 pm

Hello all. Just a little about me: I converted to Zen Buddhism about three years ago, although I take inspiration from other schools; I work on an assembly line, I'm engaged (re-engaged) to my ex-wife, and we have two kids, with another on the way. I spent most of my life as a Christian, and have been "obsessed" with studying religion since I was about 14, which was about 20 years ago. Oh, which reminds me, I'm Autistic. I have Asperger's Syndrome, or at least that's what they're calling it for now :p

I enjoy heavy metal music, crime drama TV, and fishing and camping.

Hopefully I'll get to know some of you out there as well, and make this a home away from home. :)
