paganism seems to agree with my ow independantly developed beliefs and convictions. in addition, have had visions of a pagan nature for much of my life, though i dismissed them very much of that. i was raised christian, but something in the back of my mind told me that there was something wrong with it.

Ive always been this way to tell the truth my father has told me about when i was little and i always wanted to do magic. When i was about 10 without ever reading a book i invoked the spirit of the wind and gave the god of the stars my heart to hold until i found someone worthy of it. It is a part of me as is my arms and legs. I went though many religions even turning to the Christan god for comfort but it was not right, the music was wonderful though.
How can i believe even though i have not seen with my eyes? I have felt with my heart when you bring a god into your body invite them in and they accept there is no mistaking the feeling.
As for the holidays i celibate them because i have much to be thankful for i have been gifted with so much love in this life time its overwhelming to think about.
How do i know its true... because its part of who i am.
I dont follow any Judeo-Christian / Abrahmic or Islamic faith.
Thus I'm Pagan.
It has nothing to do with my personality or interest.
I'm Germanic Traditionalist, hence the classification as Pagan.
Personally, I dont like being associated with most Pagans. Mainly because the majority of Pagans I've met approach spirituality and religion in an inherently lazy, half-shod, OH LOOK AT ME! bullshit type manner. Its shamefuly pathetic.
