Meg Christensen’s journey into alternative forms of faith was deeply influenced by her grandfather, a free-thinking spirit who embraced new practices throughout his life. In his 70s, he began learning the art of copper carving, a pursuit he continued until his death at 93. A member of the Unitarian Universalist Church, he passed down to Meg the values of open-mindedness and questioning societal norms in favor of beliefs that resonated on a personal level.
For Meg, these practices offer a sense of safety and connection to the present moment, reinforcing the belief that everything happens for a reason. They provide her with a steady reminder that she is exactly where she needs to be, fostering a sense of peace and acceptance. Through these rituals, Meg continues to cultivate a deeper connection to herself and the world around her, carrying forward the legacy of exploration and growth instilled by her grandfather.
