It isn't so much -keeping- the information from her. It's just.. Maybe a bit of it is I'm tired of looking to her for permission all the time. I want to do something independently. I'm nineteen, for pete's sake. Time to be my own person.
I believe that too, and Wicca has always felt.. when I was little it was natural, but as I've grown, I've become less practicing, less... It's like the bit from Dogma. "When you're young, the glass is small, and it doesn't take much to fill it. As you get older, the glass gets bigger, and the same amount of faith just.. doesn't fill it anymore."
So, maybe I need to find a different faith, or maybe I just need reaffirmation that the path I'm on is the right one.
I think you're right, though. (Almost) All paths lead to the light, I just have to find my own way there. I figure no matter what, some of the rules I learned growing up pagan apply to everyday life, and any other religion. Including "And ye harm none, do as ye will", among others I'm sure.
Thank you for your support, though. It means a lot. n_n
