*tempest smith*

*1988 - 2001*

this page is dedicated to sweet tempest our Wiccan/witch sister.

may the gods&godesses keep you safe.

Twelve-year-old Tempest Smith of Lincoln Park, usa,  hung herself in her
bedroom just  four years ago.  Her mother said Tempest's suicide came
after she was relentlessly teased at school for being a
Wiccan.

By all accounts, Tempest Smith was a loving girl and a talented poet,
but many of her classmates at Lincoln Park Middle School admit to having
teased her by chanting Christian hymns at her!. They didn't like her black outfits or her belief in the Wicca religion.

On February 20, Tempest hung herself in her bedroom.

when will people grow up about Wicca and witchcraft!!!!!

i have been asked what do witches/Wiccans do  for people or the world in general??

my answer is it's not so much about what we do, it's more about

how we feel about ourselves and our environment.

we are peaceful earth lovers, we celebrate the mother earth and all the natural beauty it offers us, is that bad?????????????

why do we have to be doing something for anyone anyway?

can we not be doing something for us? that bothers no-one?

can people not think for themselves anymore??

why can't people just grow up or shut up!!

pagan folk the world over choose the path they walk,

amazingly thinking about it all by themselves!!!

we don't go summoning up all kinds of  devilish things!!!!!!!!!!!!

in fact most of us don't bother any one!

also we don't tell everyone else our beleif is the be all

 and end all.

we also don't tell others we don't like the colour of

clothes they  wear or that they are weird

for worshipping  or not,  anything else.

if you don't know what it is to be pagan minded,

don't' put people down selfishly  simply because

you don't like it!! got it !!
