Everything Under the Moon

Thank you, Vesca. That is true. I just tell myself to keep my eye on the prize. Plus, I'm sure this year will zip right by since I've heard from other people that the credential program will take over my life. Deadlines and such always seem to make the months go by faster. Even so, I'm still very ex...

Wow, it's been a long time since I wrote this. I would just like to thank everyone who responded, I really appreciate it. A lot has changed, really. We're still in school, which is why we both live at home. We both only have one more year until we finish our teaching credential program, so we don't ...

Was the baby sick?

I'm curious, too. What were they in for?

That does help. I do try to meditate when I can fully relax, and not really have to worry about anything right that second. What kind of scent is a good meditation scent? I'm not really into burning incense, and I like scented candles more. Or even like air freshener or something.

I'm new to meditation, and I'm having trouble clearing my mind completely. Since I'm a beginner, I was wondering if anybody had any tips for working your way up to being able to clear the mind completely when meditating?

This is an interesting question. Honestly, I do believe that some suffering is necessary for us to learn from, and grow as a person, just as Siona said. I believe the universe will throw some life lessons your way if it believes it is necessary for you to learn a particular lesson, or maybe even rea...

Your altar is beautiful. I love the shells, and cloth.

Beautiful. I love the candles, and the seashell.

I'm not Wiccan or Pagan (I'm more spiritual), but yes it does make me upset when people demonize Wicca or Paganism. They sometimes even demonize other religions. I don't think it's anyone's place to tell someone else what they should believe in, or say that their religion or spiritual beliefs are wr...

Vesca and Seraphin, those are very interesting stories, and they have helped. I homestly believe that other gods and goddesses exist, we just make a personal decision to have a relationship with whoever it is we feel connected to. They have actually helped me. I honestly felt bad for believing that ...

Thank you all for responding. I am still a little scared. I agree with SnowCat that the church doesn't know everything about life, and that there's more. Rosie, thank you for the information on the Holy Spirit. I read it, and she does sound interesting. I'm going to research her a little more. Adast...

As I have stated before, I believe in and love God and Jesus Christ. I'm not Christian, Catholic, or any branch off of those religions. Long story short, I'm not religious. Honestly, the only reason I even still believe in, worship, and love God and Jesus Christ is because they've contacted me, and ...

Thought I'd join in. I'm pansexual. I used to label myself as bisexual, but I realized that gender and biological sex don't play a part in my attraction to a person, and in college was when I discovered the pansexual orientation.

I firmly believe in spirits, and I've had multiple encounters. I've both seen and felt them. The most recent experiences with one getting in my bed and tossing and turning, and one lightly hitting me on the back. I both heard and felt that one, and it felt like a small child's hand. I also firmly be...
