Some people...

As a pagan I have learned that you have to have tough skin and be able to take criticism with kindness. I,however, find that I don't really have that tough skin so when i see and hear people talk badly about pagans,wiccans, it really grinds my nerves.
Most wiccans I've come to know over the internet don't tell you about the downside...no one does.but it is something you will face at least once in your life if you choose this spiritual path.the people that will ridicule you are really just afraid of you. You're outside their safe little world that they may have always known and humanity does not do well with change.especially the spiritual kind of change.
But if this is the path you truly want then just prepare for the worst is all i can tell you.if you would like to talk or share your experiences then comment below or leave me a message on my facebook page.(lady amethysta butterfly)
