I'll try to describe my path and my way of living as best as i can for anyone who wants to know. My spiritual
life started when i was roughly 9-10 years old. At the time i didnt knwo what i felt only that i fel that the baptist church
i was going to didnt feel right that my place was else where. After that my first memory was right here in the bedroom im
at right now. I was lying in my bed and was looking at the closet it must have been 9pm or around there, I looked up and saw
a huge lion's face staring at me form the closet...freaked me out because i didnt realize it back then but now i do. After
that i pretty much didnt do anything untill i joined the army and started learning a bit here and there. It wasnt untill after
i was shot in iraq and medically discharged from the army that i took a nose dive into my religion. At first i didnt know
what i called myself except "pagan". I didnt realize that the word "pagan" meant anyone not practicing the "islamic jewish
or christian faiths". Now my knowledge has expanded and grown and honestly it was a hard path i walked to get to where i am
now. But any path can be hard at times so, My biggest problem was i was on the "eclectic path" so i didnt have any books to
read persay just some sites i had bookmarked to look at. When i was discharged from the military I was retired so i decided
to take some time off and do what i wanted to do. Little did i know fate had my path allready cut out for me. It wasnt easy
to get to where i am now as. I had my work cut out for me, allthough i dont mind as i think im better off with the road i
took. I've always had a feeling im unique and as i grew up in my teens it became more pronounced that no one hardly understood
me. There was always a voice in the back of my mind guiding me teaching me things i didnt know or paths i was hesitant about.
Allthough i am an eclectic witch i am thoroughly convinced i do have guardian angels protecting me as i have been thru certain
experiences that made me believe someone was watching over me. I was 9 years old when my bloodline grandfather died. He still
watches over me and he is the reason i have started my shaman ways. I now have started learning about the ways of old mainly
the native americans and the tibetan ways as i lean towards peace and balance more than anything. I am an old soul and i feel
it although physically im only 22.All good things come with time.
