Truth

I originally posted this on mylot, but it felt important enough for me to duplicate this post here as well. Your comments are warmly welcomed.

It took a long time for "upper management" to beat this into me, and honestly, sometimes I still choose (wrongfully) to ignore my hard earned lessons and let it affect it.

Fear, Deception, Lies, Anger and Violence. These are the weapons of those who chose to hide from the light of truth. They use them because they are afraid of what they do not understand, what they cannot understand.

I was, and sometimes still is, angry at people like that. There were those who mistreated me because of my believes. The resentment built up and so did the anger. So much so that "upper management" stepped in*censored* slapped me to my senses.

I would leave the*cough* joy of discovering that experience to the parties who need it. But I'll share what little this numb skull had learn from it all.

They WANT you to be angry. It just feeds them with the hatred that they are so hungry for. They mistake it for passion, and dread the day it leaves them. The emptiness left is more torturous then damnation. As twisted as it is, this is the only way they know how to survive.

They are in all religions, all faiths, all believes. The Lost who would worship anything just to get a false sense of peace. Serenity parts not her grace to them. And I know them well. It's hard not to know a past you are not proud of.

Open your heart and listen. Truth calls. It will not be the truth under a brick or on a page. It will be truth without Good or Evil, without Merit or Sin. It will be Truth as it is. Let not the ones who hide from it sway you, or risk joining them.

Open your arms, step up and receive.

May that which you hold divine, be with you always.

The pagan holy book

I was once asked for prove of faith
Ancient writings to show our ways
Teachings passed down by long forgotten saints

Back then I was unable to answer the challenge
Shallow was my knowledge and wisdom shared little grace
Shame hit hard and flushed my face

Now I will smile and spread my arms
And invite fellow seekers to listen with me
To the ancient wisdom echoing in the winds

Introducing Serial Sally

Serial Sally is a child serial killer trying to fit in. She can't understand why people won't play with her. Maybe its all the old blood stains on her dress. Maybe people are just mean.

This is my first T-shirt on Cafepress.com. It's the first merchandise which I have created a comic character for.

You can find more of Serial Sally here http://www.cafepress.com/serialsally Please have a look and comment on this post on what you think :)

Post about posting prayers

some might have noticed that I stopped posting prayers for a while. The reason has been that my prayers got a little personally, and I'm not comfortable sharing them online.

I started posting them because I found a lack of pagan prayers online. Though it's not a common habit for pagans to pray, I still found it a little disappointing when I was searching for everyday pagan prayers.

Many other religions have scores of prayers online, and countless more in print. Why is it that pagans have so few?

Please comment on this post and share your thoughts on this, thank you.
