Coming of Age

I am a Pantheist.
Not that titles really matter but it does help me understand myself when I can put things in boxes sometimes 8-).

For the past year I have been reaching into myself trying to put a handle on my Paganism and today I finally found the word that encompasses it. I believe that the Universe IS God and that the Goddess is in everything. Its why I don't feel the need to worship a certain entity or go to church or perform any rituals in order to feel close to the Goddess. She is with me all the time especially when I go outside and be with Nature. I am a true tree hugger. There is a spirit in a tree just as there is one in you and me and ALL things are sacred.

Its hard to explain but I feel now like a new window has opened for me and I can be more spiritual in my life. It will also be easier now to explain to people when they ask about my Paganism.

Its silly and amazing at the same time that one word can change so many things. I have come of age.
