      Welcome the forum. What issue are you having?
      There once was a man who said though,
      It seems that I know that I know,
      What I'd like to see,
      Is the I that knows me,
      When I know that I know that I know.

        Greetings from Finland

        Hello everyone. I'm soon-to-be-18-years-old young woman from Finland. I've been trying to find Finnish pagan forums for ages now and finally decided to give up and find an English one. And I must apology that my English isn't always the most understandable thing to read, but I'll do my best to write as well as I can. If there are any major mistakes, please correct me.

        I'm still not fully sure what my path and way of living is, but I could say I'm kind of a Nature worshipper. I do respect Mother and Father Nature as well as elements and other spiritual beings. I could say that there's a little tree-hugger inside of me trying to get out at times and unfortunately many of my friends just doesn't get it.

        I've been into paganism for many years now and I'm interested in old Finnish paganism and shamanism. I had tried to find my path from the Christianity for a year or two, but with no results at all. It just didn't feel right and I felt confused and somewhat depressed. But then I somehow found myself from the world of paganism and from the lovely lap of the Mother Nature. It just felt so good and right and then I knew "this is my place, this is where I belong to". And ever since then I've been a lot happier and lively.

        Funny thing is that my boyfriend is a fully theoretical man. He thinks my little habits are really interesting (and attractive), but doesn't believe in those, not a one bit. Well, I'm glad he accepts my ways of thinking. I think he actually just enjoys having a little house witch of his own even thought he still laughs (in a good way) a bit to my tarot-readings and moments like "hey, my rip muscle feels like blue" (I don't know, sometimes I just "sense" things and feelings as colours and it confuses me a lot more than him).

        But I'll end this little chit-chat here now. I'm really glad that I found this forum, I'm sure this will be a big helper on my way to find my inner self. I really hope you won't think me as a madman now.

          Welcome to PF. I think your English is very good and makes perfect sense for what it's worth.

            Welcome to the forum!

            Your English is coming across just fine, but if anything is unclear we we will ask!

            I'm very interested in old Finnish paganism, but there are few resources available in English! If you ever would like to start a thread of your own about those practices, it would be welcomed

              Your English is so bad!

              Just kidding, I can't even tell this is a second language. Welcome aboard

                      Hi Jen, nice to meet you! I'm out in western PA, but I grew up near Philly and went to college in York- there are a lot of witches and pagans to meet in those areas if you are thereabouts. What brought you to the path of a kitchen witch?

                            Hi Jen! Welcome to PF! Please don't hesitate to ask questions if you have any. We're a friendly bunch around here
                            It's a really, really cool thing, to be able to show people that you can be yourself, and you should be proud of yourself, and you should own who you are and what you're about, and never make apologies for it.

                              Oh, welcome to the board.
                              Life itself was a lightsaber in his hands; even in the face of treachery and death and hopes gone cold, he burned like a candle in the darkness. Like a star shining in the black eternity of space.

                              "But those men who know anything at all about the Light also know that there is a fierceness to its power, like the bare sword of the law, or the white burning of the sun." Suddenly his voice sounded to Will very strong, and very Welsh. "At the very heart, that is. Other things, like humanity, and mercy, and charity, that most good men hold more precious than all else, they do not come first for the Light. Oh, sometimes they are there; often, indeed. But in the very long run the concern of you people is with the absolute good, ahead of all else..."

                                Well I could try to write a thread about it, but it will take me ages. It's not easiest thing to translate poems from Kalevala for example and I'm having small problems with English writing already so it will be a big challenge to me. But I think I could try it someday.
