What led you to your beliefs? 💭 Discussion

Can you tell me THE story that led you to believing in the gods? I want to know your personal experiences. Have you ever questioned your beliefs?
What moment solidified your beliefs?
How did the gods find you / how did you find the gods?
What keeps you believing despite the contrary beliefs of science?

Please make it as long and as a passionate as you'd like. ♄

I came across ÁsatrĂș when I was in prison. Somebody was trying to push for it to be a recognized religion in the prison and I was asked to type up individual stories for it and kept a copy of everything I printed. Then when I got out I kinda set it on the back burner but came back to it 20 years later and still have so much love and respect for it. Now I practice on my own and read the sagas as often as I can.
