the religion pendulum swung back for me

Hey all,

Does anyone else go through seasons of embracing a certain spiritual or religious path and then have a moment of halting in their steps and switching gears? I'm making this post here because I honestly don't know where else to put these thoughts as I do not have friends that I can openly discuss religion with.

As of last fall (2021), I had renounced my faith as a Christian and had been spending lots of time exploring other religions such a Islam just for the sake of learning something new. Islam never really stuck with me but I loved the structure that it provided such as the daily prayers and certain habits that develop when practicing the religion.

I also ended up getting into some new age spirituality practices which drew me back to learning a bit about Hinduism. I enjoyed the freedom that new age spirituality offered which was a "make it your own" type of thing and I got into it for quite a bit of time (almost a year).

But now, out of seemingly nowhere, I woke up a few days ago and started wanting to research Christianity from a more historical context and learn a bit more about ancient christian practices. I haven't really touched any of my new age spirituality things in my home since this new desire arose. I am also interested in exiting Islam again because of the structure it provides.

Does anyone else get like this? Please don't hate on me for religion hopping 😅. I try my best to be respectful in each space I enter.
