This one was born on my recent trip to Toronto. There was some concern about whether people were put off by my being Pagan. I'm not sure I care. I know we've been getting a bad rap for the past few hundred years, but there is NO ONE safer to be around than a Witch. We know how Not to do magick - something average people don't learn. We aren't going to screw up our Karma by being devious or careless. It's too important to us.
How much slack do I have to cut people for their bigotry? I know it's culturally ingrained, but at some point people have to stop making assumptions and start asking questions. My religious and political views are extreme, but I'm a really nice person. I try to help people. I try to tell people good things about themselves. I'd never deliberately hurt anyone. No one is more up-front about their problems than I am. I'm not trying to hide anything. I'd be better off if I did.
Anyone who is afraid of me is going to be disappointed. I don't cast evil spells. I do my best to educate people about Wicce and Tarot and life in general.When I'm able to, I leave a place better than I found it. I feel everything very intensely and that makes me easy to hurt. I love deeply and completely.
If you are afraid of me, you need to be, because you won't be the same after you've met me. You won't think I'm evil. You'll probably like me. You'll have to look at life and people in a slightly different way, because you've been going around fearing that which will never harm you. Now isn't that silly?
