First post, yay!

I want to post about something important to me, so here goes:
Tha basics of my beliefs.


1: Always strive to learn and grow in everything that you do. it does not matter if others admire you, or respect you, only that you admire and respect yourself. That is the only way you can truly become someone you are proud of.

2: Don't be dragged down by the will of others. There are times when you must cater to others, to keep a job or to avoid needless drama. Just be sure that you are doing it because of a conscious decision on your part to concede, even for a short time. Never be forced to do anything that you do not decide your damn self to do.

3: Do not ignore the little dark voice inside you. Do not always give into it either. Those little dark desires cannot be controlled and channeled if ignored and oppressed. Instead acknowledge them, and make the conscious decision to control it. If not, they can and will rear their ugly heads at the most inopportune times.

4: Be careful what you say and do in anger or unrest, especially if you are a witch or of similiar persuasion. Words and emotions have power, and can spin out of control if not acknowledged and controlled. If you wish something, do it deliberately, with ful knowledge that your words, thoughts and emotions can bring about profound change. The same goes for ill wishing. Be careful and mindful always.

5: There is a distinct difference between being immature and being childlike. Immaturity is acting as though you should get what you desire with little or no effort on your part, much like a small child would. If an immature person doesn't get what they want, they resort to name calling, passive aggressive behavior, and often violence. That is but one definition, but that is the one that annoys me the most. Being childlike is taking the time to enjoy a special treat, or laughing just for the sake of laughing. It means to play as though you were innocent and without stress and pressure. That is one of the single most wonderful balms for the soul, and if we all practiced being childlike, this world would be a much better place.

6: Every person is different. That which works wonders for one person may not work the same for another. Take this into mind when asking for and giving advice, and take all that is said with a grain of salt. on that same note, do not disregard what someone has suggested, even if you've tried it before and it didn't work. Unless there were very bad results, try again, because things can change with time.

7: An' ye harm none, do what ye will. This phrase has different meanings for different people. To me it means to not willfully harm another being unless you have due cause.  One cannot go through this world worried about stepping on others toes, or hurting their feelings. And the time may come when you must fight for your beliefs, your family, and you friends. But until that time comes, know that mindless violence and meanness rarely, if ever, brings any good to those involved. This is more so to those that know their actions can and will ripple out from them as ripples in a pond.


8: Honor your own code. The maxims above are mine, the ones i have set for myself. That does not mean that everyone can follow them, even I have trouble at times. But as long as you have set some standards for yourself, and follow them as best you can, even changing them to suit the changes you have gone through, you can live a life you can be proud of. That is, in my opinion, the highest thing that someone can strive for.


Blessed be, and may the moon always light your path.
