A morning grumble...
Dec. 4th, 2008 06:20 amThe other day while I was running around at the Jade Mines I ran into a couple with pentacles around their necks. It wasn't really busy, so I complimented them and we got on the topic of being Pagan. Turns out the guy in the couple did the tombstone for the Pagan soldier whose family had to fight to get his religious symbol onto his stone. I remembered the protests at the capitol and said so and he told me I really should come to the Upper Midwestern Pagan Association meetings. I mentioned I'd thought about it but that I've been a busy creature...
"Well, make time!" He growled. "Get yourself out of the broom closet!"
At the time I was a bit annoyed that he assumed because he didn't know me that I'm not involved in things. How could he know that I've been with my coven for seven years and counting? I think about getting more organised, but I often get irritated by the "More magick than thou" folks who feel they have something to prove...it's sometimes easier to just be with friends...the lazy way out, I know:/
Anyway, gotta motor! That bus isn't going to catch itself!
