If there is one question which anyone with knowledge (actual or purported) of a religious or spiritual path will speak about, it is the perennial question of those things which someone (read: you) should or should not do. Or perhaps more directly, those things which folks like you and I either must or must not do.
Sometimes it is on the level of the Sunday school teacher who tells the children that Jesus wants them to brush their teeth. In other cases, it can be round after round of debate, whether in a covenstead or in the common room of a seminary dormitory. Among Wiccans, you will often see this "colored" by discussions of what might be "white magick", "gray magick", or "black magick." And sometimes, it is hard to draw the line. Or, did you draw the line correctly? Or is this a case where you can modify what you are doing so that it can be on the better side of that line.
Or is it even a line? Or could you see it like I do, as a series of circles? Let's explore this!
Blessed Be!

Seductive and confident, Donna Karan's new "Pearls of Wisdom" fall collection blended metallic fabrics, fur, and sheer sophistication. Elegant lines and simple hair and makeup proved that nobody does couture like Donna!
DVF goes west! The pioneering spirit of cowboy country is present throughout Diane Von Furstenberg's fall collection. Leather hats, boots, big belt buckles and fringe corralled the crowds complete attention.
Long skirts, chunky knits, sweater jackets and high heels make up Tory Burch's fall line. It's a little bit country, a little bit rock n' roll and a whole lot in between!
Donna Karan's DKNY fall line is inspired by the streets of New York City. Black is centerpiece of Karan's runway looks this season, as well as versatile pieces you can wear to work or for a night out on the town.

Good evening Ebay-ers. Welcome to item #170601985779 which ends on the 18th Feb. The item in Q is a Bernina 1008 Mechanical sewing machines. Today I want to show you the range of application for this sewing machine. To do that I will demonstrate 2 different stitches. The first will be the straight stitch by far the most widely used stitch and the most practical. Second stitch will be a decorative stitch and this will demonstrate the essence of this machine, as well its complexity. Uhm, so, hopefully by the end of this demo, you'll be left impressed about what this machine could do.

In a couple of weeks, it will be February 20th, Tempest Smith Day. This year, we are observing the tenth anniversary of her passing. She was twelve years old, talented and intelligent. She played the flute and wrote poetry. She was also learning about Wicca, considered herself to be Wiccan, and because of that she was bullied by her classmates until she finally died by her own hand.
I'll say more about Tempest Smith on "Mass For The Shut-Out" Right now, I want to talk about what we can do as a lead-up to Tempest Smith Day. In the Christian calendar, lead-ups to major occasions are even given names, such as Advent leading up to Christmas, and the "infamous" Lent leading up to Easter. I say infamous for Lent because I see Lent as a perfect example of form taking over for substance to the point that many people have lost sight of its actual purpose. If you want to see what I mean, ask a Christian child about Lent and you'll be told about all of the things you can't have and can't do because of Lent - and nothing about getting yourself spiritually ready for the holiday which, in essence defines Christianity.
And so, what can we do as a lead-up to Tempest Smith Day? There has been much said in the media lately about bullying. I recently wrote a very nice email to the superintendent of the school district where I graduated from high school, and I asked about what is being done there about bullying. It is true that they have written policies in place for one and all to read, but what are they actually doing? As of this writing, it has been a week and I have received no reply.
And for those who wish to see people of all faiths working together, this should be a most blessed opportunity. A Christian should not be bullied for being Christian any more than a Wiccan should be bullied for being a Wiccan, and the fate of the bully in either case should be the same.
So, let's do this for Tempest Smith.
Blessed Be!
