Thank you for having the courage to answer my direct question. Like yourself, I was attracted to Buddhism, in part, because it seemed to address certain long-term issues I had, and , in part, because it just seemed "right" from my initial readings.

Would it be of interest if others were willing to discuss the reasons for their choice, realizing that this can be a very personal question?
