They call me...




When I stand up for myself and my beliefs, they call me a witch.

When I stand up for those I love, they call me a witch.

When I speak my mind, think my own thoughts, or do things

my own way, they call me a witch.

Being a witch entails raising my children to be strong people

Who have a solid sense of personal and social responsibility,

Who are not afraid to stand up for what they believe in

And, who love and respect themselves for the

beautiful beings they are.

Being a witch means that I am free to be the wonderful creature

I am, With all my own intricacies, contradictions, quirks and beauty.

Being a witch means I won't compromise what's in my heart.

It means I live my life MY way.

It means I won't allow anyone to step on me.

When I refuse to tolerate injustice and speak up against it,

I am defined as a witch.

The same thing happens when I take time for myself

instead of being everyone else's maid or when I act a little selfish.

I am proud to be a witch!

It means I have the courage and strength to allow myself

to be who I truly am and won't become anyone else's idea

of what they think I "should" be.

I am outspoken, opinionated and determined.

By Goddess, I want what I want and there is nothing wrong with that!

So, try to stomp on me, try to douse my inner flame, try to squash

every ounce of beauty I hold within me.

You won't succeed.

And if that makes me a witch, so be it.

I embrace the title and am proud to bear it.

I call myself a witch!

I believe...







Read this slowly. It kinda sums it all up..........

I believe- That we don't have to change friends
if we understand that friends change.

- That no matter how good a friend is,
they're going to hurt you every once in a while and,
you must forgive them for that.

- That true friendship continues to grow, even over
the longest distance. Same goes for true love.

- That you can do something in an instant that will
give you heartache for life.

- That it's taking me a long time to become the person
I want to be.

- That you should always leave loved ones with loving
words for It may be the last time you see them.

- That you can keep going long after you think you can't.

- That we are responsible for what we do, no matter how we feel.

- That either you control your attitude or it controls you.

- That regardless of how hot and steamy a relationship is
at first, the passion fades and there had better be
something else to take its place.

- That heroes are the people who do what has to be done
when it needs to be done, regardless of the consequences.

- That money is a lousy way of keeping score.

- That my best friend and I can do anything or nothing
and have the best time.

- That sometimes the people you expect to kick you
when you're down, will be the ones to help you get back up.

- That sometimes when I'm angry I have the right to be
angry, but that doesn't give me the right to be cruel.

- That just because someone doesn't love you the way
you want them to doesn't mean they don't love yo
with all they have.

- That maturity has more to do with what types of
experiences you've had and what you've learned from
them and less to do with how many birthdays you've celebrated.

- That it isn't always enough to be forgiven by others.
Sometimes you have to learn to forgive yourself.

- That our background and circumstances may have
influenced who we are, but we are responsible for
who we become.

- That just because two people argue, it doesn't mean
they don't love each other. And just because they don't
argue, it doesn't mean they do.

- That you shouldn't be so eager to find out a secret.
It could change your life forever.

- That two people can look at the exact same thing
and see something totally different.

- That your life can be changed in a matter of hours
by people who don't even know you.

- That even when you think you have no more to give,
when a friend cries out to you - you will find
the strength to help

- That credentials on the wall do not make you
a decent human being.

- That if you have faith in God,
He can take care of everything.
It may not be the way you think it should be,
but it is the correct way.

- You may like to give this to people that you believe in.
