I don’t tell people, because I don’t believe it is anyones business…Oh she’s jewish, Oh she a witch…a pagan a heathen….irreligious… In most cases if you don’t believe the way some people think you should….you are wrong…to many people have died in the name of religion and in the name of God(s)…So I believe that certain things for me should stay private….Freedom is to believe, live and died as you see fit…

Live you must & let to live….

My SO knows, my mom knows, my cousin knows, and all of my friends know. My grandmother does not (it would break her heart after my Catholic upbringing), my SO’s parents don’t know (it would probably start WWIII – no exaggeration in that estimation)… And the people I work with at my new job don’t know, and I don’t know that I want to advertise since it’s a small library in a rather (very) conservative/Christian district… Basically I tell people I am confident will accept me, and others it would probably bother, I don’t.

Though a part of me wishes I could be open with everyone, on the other hand, it’s kind of fun to be mysterious.

my boyfriend knows of course, and most of my friends know im a little “out there” when it comes to my beliefs. my co-workers may have figured it out as i used to visit pagan blogs at work i once printed out something related to wiccan symbolism and forgot it at the desk. but my family is pretty much in the dark, i think. i just invited a couple of my close friends and family to view my blog. ive it kept a secret all this time but i figure since im bad at staying in touch i may as well welcome them to check it out and im pretty sure they’ll eventually figure it out eventually. i dont like to tell people because they dont understand but oh well i am what i am and if they think im wierd, they’d be right.
