I AM A WITCH!
 
(By: Sandi Thomas)

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 love this, I can call myself a witch now and not
feel bad about it!

SO MOTE IT BE!!!!!!!! And Happy HALLOWEEN!!
