It's abnormal
On both sides of my family being religious or culturally Jewish did not exist for three generations with very few exceptions. So my Christian neighbors had a stronger sense of cultural identity then our family which was odd when told by people how much cultural inheritance I got. Nope. That never happened.
From my research and exploration I finally concluded that what is the most spiritual is what we find in the physical and visual world and got into how positive thinking works. I think 100% positive statements don't achieve great results, especially if what we are saying are lies. A less positive statement is accepted better and gives the mind something to work on. Brain body connections are real, so thinking is important and prevents dementia or even stroke or suicide. Most of all my personal connections with the physical world and love matter the most to me. Lately I have the belief that 100% positive thinking is just great with people we love.
