Hi!!
I didn't know where to introduce myself so i thought I'd just go here. Feel free to move me! 
Hi, my name is Esther + I always called myself a Christian but that religion never really made sense to me. I believe in a "God" + I believed my prayers were answered by a higher power but i didnt ever see God the way Christians did + I certainly couldnt get my head round heaven + hell + i didnt believe in the bible either. I also found Christianity to be quite hypocritical sometimes. Some Christians would quote kindness + non-judging but then didnt carry through.
Anyway, I dont even know how or why, but the other week i started looking up on other religions + found Buddhsim to really make sense to me. EVERYTHING though, down to the tiniest detail just fit for me. So, I decidied I was really interested in Buddhism + wanted to study it more to see where I was at with it. + I wanted to attend a course. The only one i could find where i live was really expensive so i started teaching myself a little bit (I hardly know anything yet!!) online + then hubby suggessted finding a forum so here I am.
Nothing in my life has ever made so much sense to me as Buddhism seems to + granted, I have only just started finding out but am excited to learn more.
Anyway, if anyone knows of any groups or classes in Manchester that aren't really expensive, would be great to hear. Otherwise, hope you dont mind me sticking around for a bit.
ps sorry for the essay
love, est xx
