"Remind me why you're pagan again?"

I like to celebrate the changes as seasons pass.

I enjoy observing the sun and the moon and the stars (astronomy).

I appreciate what the earth gives me, whether it's a simple ray of warm light or something beautiful.

I mold my views and opinions based upon what I think is right.

People ask me if I believe in God. And I do, but not in the same sense because I feel that everything is more connected than simply one definite being. The universe is a web that is constantly answering wishes and desires, changing things for the good of one which may be the bad of someone else which in turn sets off another ripple effect.

I simply close my eyes and place myself at the door to the universe and knock: "Hello! I'm here! I'm home! Haha Let's make life happen!"

People like to think of one God or a God and a Goddess. They are all correct because what I think is that the universe connects with different people in different ways. As one leader. As a mother and father. Etc.

So in that sense, I am a pagan because I appreciate and follow the beautiful things and recognize the ugly. I choose to focus on positive energy rather than negative energy. I see how the world shifts and changes as we cycle through our one small corner of the universe. The universe has so much work to do, but because it is legit connected to everything I think that in a sense, it only works for us and helps us see and guides us when we are equally as ready, motivated, and prepared for what it is we need or desire. Again, sometimes something good for me will fall in a result as something bad for someone else, which in turn it will keep rippling on how My being here effects the universe. I may be a single grain of sand out of all of the sand on this planet, but then, we are also just one planet out of the entire universe..and I can make a big difference for this one tiny corner that we have here in this vast space.
