welcomekaur to all over the past few weeks. Please forgive the tardy welcome to you all -moving cities (again!) has meant I missed the posts.
Spades ji, welcome back. It's always great when previous members return :grinningkudi:

Sat Sri Akal. My name is Kerry, and well, I am Muslim, not Sikh. I am 18 years old. I am just on this site to learn a bit more about Sikhism from actual Sikhs. I have been pretty disappointed with religious online forums so far though because of the level of prejudice and narrow-mindedness when it comes to people of other religions. Anyways, I just love learning about all religions, really. My hobbies include: reading, listening to music, watching movies, and learning languages.
Sat shri akaal and welcome, Kerry ji!

I think I qualify as an actual Sikh. I agree. It's better to learn about us from us than from others, just as it is better to learn about Muslims from actual Muslims!
Please look around the site. Lots of different points of view on almost everything are in here.
Please use bigger fonts. I have trouble reading such small print.

It is nice to meet you.
What should I call you exactly? Lol, alright, I will use larger font!

Thanks for the bigger font. My eyes are getting old, I fear.
Please just call me Mai. It's really my nickname (after Mai Bhago, a great Sikh lady warrior). :swordfight-kudiyan:

Hehe, my name is actually Kerry. xD But it's okay, many people get it wrong! What is your name?
I am a Sikh woman in late middle age who wants to learn more deeply about what it means to be a Sikh and a woman.
I would also like to learn more about how to apply Gurbani to my life without distorting what the Guru Sahiban and Bhagats are trying to teach us.

Hello, my name is Tera and I am completely new to Sikh. I researched Sikh, and felt that the concepts related to me. However, everyone in my family is Christian (but they are open/supporting of my religious choice) and I do not know where to start or who to talk to, to begin my journey. If anyone has has any advice at all, I am all ears!

Welcome to SPN. My advice in the earliest stages is to study and read and immerse yourself in discussions among Sikhs. Do not make any decisions in a hasty manner. Conversion is a big step no matter the religions involved because along with that conversion comes a change in life-style and social identity. Make this journey a safe journey and a warm and supportive journey. Do not go looking for times, places, and opportunities to encounter argument and friction if friction can be avoided. Be inwardly confident you have made the right choice. Then you will be able to walk away from needless debate, and also keep the friends and family who are worth keeping. Your life will be increased in blessings that way.
