I love your post and I agree with you, specially here:
'I always think of the lord as my main "guide".'
Because I love to think that our true Guide is what we call God. The Unconditional Love.
And our guides are trying that we 'meet' the Unconditional love (aka God).
You know, I believe I have two guides (I try not to use the word 'know', in order to remain open).
I've often felt that one of my guides is the main guide, but I'm not sure if that's how it is, or maybe I'm just 'closer' to this Guide sometimes because of my own free will/state. They always respects my free-will, it is 'sacred'.
