I usually keep this to myself but I believe there is something. I am not sure what but I like the idea that the universe sort of has a will and a consciousness to an extent whether the universe is god or its own thing I don't know. I think the most important thing is humanity does not let any specifics of their beliefs get in way of seeing all people as equal regardless of religion,ethnicity, sexuality,gender. Or whatever excuse people come up with next to differentiate their group as better than any other.

Fun post! I practice Hoodoo, which is Afro-American Folk Magic. It encompasses various West African spiritual practices under one term and is based on the belief that nature — trees, plants, and similar entities — has spirits that deserve our respect. This practice involves conjuring spirits, connecting with the roots, honoring our ancestors, divination, and offering praise.

I’m still learning, but recently the women who have shaped me into who I am today chose me through their spirits (This is called mounting). I want to make them proud. While working with spirits can be a bit intimidating, my culture teaches that you cannot engage with ‘the roots’ without understanding them, and there are as many benevolent spirits as there are malevolent ones.
