Hi Mattias, and welcome!
Thanks for sharing your story! My own story was somewhat similar, though Catholic rather than Mormon.
I have some friends who are Mormon and they've shared much of their faith with me. I am very appreciative that they did not judge me for my 'New Age' leanings. They never tried to impose their religion on me either, and for that I am very grateful. They were also amazed that we actually shared some beliefs, such as that of pre-existence (though my belief was in the form of reincarnation, but it's pre-existence nonetheless!) I see much joy and warmth in my Mormon friends, especially in how they are very family-oriented. So there must be some degree of Light there!
I think there is much beauty in the Mormon faith. I am grateful for my own Catholic upbringing, for it provided a foundation of faith for me in many ways. Although I later discarded much of it, it did play an important role in my life.
Blessings to you on your journey!
