London
(ANI):
Ringo
Starr,
the
Beatles'
drummer,
says
he
has
found
God
after
taking
a
long
and
winding
road
to
enlightenment.
The
reformed
rock
legend,
who
turns
70
in
July,
admitted
he
lost
his
way
when
he
was
younger,
both
as
a
Beatle
experimenting
with
marijuana
and
LSD
and
afterwards
when
he
suffered
alcohol
and
cocaine
problems
in
the
late
1970s.
But
the
musician,
who
has
since
become
teetotaller
and
quit
his
60-a-day
cigarette
habit,
says
that
religion
now
plays
an
important
role
in
his
life.
"I
feel
the
older
I
get,
the
more
I'm
learning
to
handle
life.
Being
on
this
quest
for
a
long
time,
it's
all
about
finding
yourself," the
Telegraph
quoted
Starr
as
telling
the
Los
Angeles
Times
at
a
Grammy
Museum
event
in
Los
Angeles.
"For
me,
God
is
in
my
life.
I
don't
hide
from
that
...
I
think
the
search
has
been
on
since
the
60s.
I
stepped
off
the
path
there
for
many
years
and
found
my
way
[back]
onto
it,
thank
God,"
he
added.
