I knew I was a Pagan.

4. I wasn’t afraid of the Dark
5. The Moon was always a woman.
6. Water was second nature to me.
7. The Grass loved my bare feet. 8. The Wind called my name.

11. I knew that my grandmother was watching over me.
12. I loved making things.
13. Music filled my lungs like breath.
14. My inner voice was wiser than I was.

15. I killed the Devil.
16. The god’s don't want me on my knees. One cannot love what one fears.
17. The gods don’t test you. Life is not a test. It’s a journey.
18. There is no such thing as sin...only stupidity and its reward.
19. The sins of the parents are not the curse of their children.
20. Evil is a coward and staving it off is not a 24/7 job.
21. A child brings everything with it and only gets dumber associating with adults.
