Young people start out life (say at 20), having some sort of plan or image in their mind, (some don't have any) of what they want or think their life will/could, be. They want to stay looking young and beautiful, strong with their "joi de vivre" pulsing through their bodies. I was one of them, to a point. I was young, (very young), un-materialistic and very hippie in my outlook. I was also extremely naive and a dreamer, religious and unconventional. God was always central to my life, without Him, I would have died, literally. When I was a teen, my father introduced me to different religions and cultures of the world, and I loved it. My family were Roman Catholic, with my father a well-travelled Irishman and my mother a RC convert, who was very religious. There were five of us children, with me as the eldest. We grew up travelling Australia, as my father was
a mining engineer and moving from job to job. Life was difficult, with many changes, different schooling systems and on top of that, different states had different systems as well.
