personal relationship to religion

i've been thinking about my relationship to religion for a while. i want to explore a little, maybe convert if a religion really feels right for me.

my mom's family is catholic. i was raised with some of that, but not all of it. i never really prayed, didn't truly believe in God, and went to church with mom because they had donuts. once they stopped making them, i stopped going too. i don't think i've ever really connected with christianity on a religious level. so for the majority of my life, i've been somewhat of an atheist.

nowadays, i'd describe myself as irreligious rather than an atheist. to me, being an atheist means i wouldn't believe in the existence of a god at all. after some time thinking about it, i don't believe or disbelieve it. maybe one exists, maybe multiple.

i've heard some things about other religions that i've been interested by. resonated a little bit with? it's hard to find the word for it. since i'm going to be in college, i might as well use that time to explore what religion really is to me. if i convert to a religion, i hope it's genuine and not out of a desire to be "saved" or "fixed" by something.
