Yeah, April is right. Really you can't understand any one else's believes. First they must translate there believes in too words. Then the listener must translate the words to something s/he can relate to. And after that s/he must try to translate it into an understanding. And on that way many thins will get wrong.
As April said, my question was more like if you had a specific path or something, like wicca or budism and so on.
I have created a thread thats about how we come to work with magic. It's really interesting to share background histories with other here. We often see our selves so boring. But others will think you are as interesting as you think others are. Or at least, I will

Feel free to share your story.
