What is a Witch?

When I stand up for myself and my beliefs, they call me a Witch.

When I stand up for those I love, they call me a Witch.

When I speak my mind, think my own thoughts, or do things my own way, they call me a Witch.

Being a Witch means means I won't compromise what's in my heart.  It means I live my life MY way.  It means I won't allow anyone to step on me.

When I refuse to tolerate injustice and speak up against it, I am defined as a Witch.

The same thing happens when I take time for myself instead of being everyone's maid, or when I act a little selfish.

I am proud to be a Witch.

It means I have the courage and strength to allow myself to be who I truly am and won't become anyone else's idea of what they think I "should" be.  I am outspoken, opinionated, and determined.

By Goddess, I want what I want, and there is nothing wrong with that!

So try to stomp on me, try to douse my inner flame, try to squash every ounce of beauty I hold within me.

You won't succeed and if that makes me a Witch, so be it!

I embrace the title and am proud to bear it.
