How did you feel before you converted vs. after you converted?
On the day of my conversion, my mind was troubled because more and more things didn't make any sense about my religion. I went to a solitary place to think/reason it through. I keep on begging god to explain the problems or show some sign. After about 2 hours worth of begging, I admitted to myself that it was all bullshit. In that second, all the of purpose and design I saw in the universe was gone. And it felt kinda dark. I stayed there silent for a while not knowing how I should proceed. My mind was no longer troubled by nonsense but at the cost of my imaginary security blanket. My only solace at that moment was that life will continue to behave the way it always did. It took me about a month regain my awe of nature and realize that I made the right decision. It still took me about year to build a worldview devoid of god.
