Hey everyone, sorry about the lapse in blog posts. I've been going through somethings, and I thought it best to take time for myself for a while. I'm going to try and write at least every other day from now on. (feel free to spam me with reminders and topics of interest!)
On a serious note, I thought I'd bring something to attention for those of us in interfaith relationships. When you love someone, you can make anything work. But you need to pay attention to a few things. You shouldn't feel like you're silly or ridiculous for what you believe in. For instance, I was with an atheist for five years, and everytime he saw me practicing or gathering herbs and such, he'd laugh at me. To him, it was no big deal that he found me amusing, but to me it was a little hurtful. I didn't say anything because I knew he didn't mean anything by it, but I should have. You should show respect for what your partner believes, whether or not you think it's silly.
Regardless of what you believe, you should never feel belittled because of it, by anyone. And I think sometimes we forget that, and make excuses for the people we love when they do it.

Something We Can All Get Into ^_^
So on circleofmoms.com, I've been following the 25 Blogs of Faith, written by mothers (http://www.circleofmoms.com/top25/faith), where a lot of ladies are nominated to win by vote. There are faiths of all kinds, including Jewish, Pagan, Christian, Catholic, etc. I've voted almost everyday this week, both for blogs like Confessions of a Pagan Soccer Mom, The Pagan Mom Blog, and Woman Living Well (which is actually a Christian blog, but I like her very much, she's very nice.)
It's obviously aimed at mothers or parents, but they still have a lot of good things to say, teach, and they keep you up to date on what's going on in the world that they live in. So if you like blogs, and faith, or just ladies who are interesting and have a lot to share, look it up, and cast a vote. :] You can vote for as many as you like, but only on vote per blog every 24 hours.
Keep in mind that even if you don't agree with someone's faith, it doesn't mean you can treat them badly. Keep your comments kind, and see what you can learn. Personally, I think competitions like this open a path to open minds. These ladies are pretty cool, so go vote! ^_^
