Wonderful post Lee Ann.
It is good to find your point of balance in an evergoing quest
like you did because each time you get an answer for a question
you had, 10 more questions arise (at least it the way it works for me)
and I was told that the mark of the Genius is not to have all the answers , it is to be able to live with the doubts..........because when you doubt you progress......... and you learn a lot on your innerself.
Feeling fine in your non conformity is a gift that took me years to understand.
You are blessed to have found it sooner.
