It’s an inspiring, freeing feeling when we suddenly discover something new about ourselves. It can be the smallest thing and yet each time we find it we’re also rediscovering who we are. I’ve wasted too much time just thinking about that one question- Who am I? I’m sure we all have asked ourselves this question at least once in our lives.
The truth is there’s never one answer, and it’s because of all the small things we keep discovering. Personally, when I find this small, magical thing, I feel more alive than ever. It’s one of those things you have to experience to truly understand. One thing that I’ve come upon, which has made me into a better person, especially for myself, is witchcraft.
Now I know when people hear the word witchcraft their minds automatically go to something bad; such as cursed rituals, voodoo dolls, and whatever else people presume as evil. But I’m here to let you know that witchcraft can actually be a beautiful thing. It’s all about your intentions. Witchcraft has made me open to meditation, journaling, and creating affirmations for myself to fully let peace into my life. Especially when it feels like everything else around me is crumbling.
I’ll get into the details of witchcraft and my experiences with it in another post later; along with how it helps with your overall mental health.
Because of this discovery, I’ve also observed these other life-changing things:
~ I CAN be in control of something.
~ I CAN be a patient person.
~ I CAN make my own decisions without pleasing others.
~ Being intentional is extremely therapeutic for me.
~ There’s nothing I love more than creating my own peace and bathing in that peace for as long as I choose.
Suddenly this small thing became something more. Much more in fact. These are just a few of the things I’ve discovered about myself. Things that have let me grow as a person.
See the goal isn’t about figuring out who we are. It’s about intentionally letting these small discoveries change us in a way we could never imagine. That’s the real magic.
