Just Say No to Abuse Declaring War on Terrorism. Many persons are finding the strength within to walk down the roads their spiritual needs take them. For some, this means a parting with religious views they've maintained up to the point they find themselves tugged down unfamiliar, though comfortable, roads in the search for answers in the light of a newly awakened spirituality. Those responsibilities go beyond playing dress up for Pagan celebrations, but rather, reach deep inside of my inner self in the search for answers to questions and the continued growth and healing necessary in the life of a priestess. Introspective thought is something on which I place primary importance in any teaching I do.
Paganism is about freedom.
Freedom to discover the spiritual path that I must walk in this incarnation is one of my primary focuses as a Pagan. I am free to examine my current belief system or that taught to me by my parents or that acquired in the form of a set of mandates from other religious pursuits I may have had. I continue to evaluate my own relationship to the world around me and make informed decisions as to those elements of myself that need growth. Being Pagan is also about living by the Rede. If you really think about it, our every action requires thought and consideration in order to fulfill that portion of the Rede.
