Today I am perusing the stalker feed. I wonder why I put myself through it because truthfully I will invariably see something that either makes me shake my head or my jaw drop with a what the fuck look.
It’s crazy sometimes what is put out there for sale for all those white lighters who want to put forth all that “we walk in the light only and not in shadow because its evil” bullshit. Seriously..do ya’ll even listen to yourself? Do you hear how stupid that sounds? If you are anyway connected to nature on your path ,and most make that claim,then you will understand that there is balance of light and shadow , of duality. There is no ‘good” and “evil” in this make up. It simply “IS”. Humans are the ones who place the labels there and construe them to suit their own personal values. So why the need to sell all this “white magick” (yeah with the ever pretentious K)shit? I don’t understand it really.
I was whining about why do I look at such stuff?. A friend made a profound comment(it resonated with me). She said ” To remind you why you walk in the shadows and let the popularity chasers walk in the spotlight.” Maybe that makes me sound elitist or judgmental and in some ways I guess it is, but in truth, what I do, how I work needs no atta-boys or accolades from others. I do as I have always done, and if that helps others, then so be it. I prefer the shadows where there is comfort and time to breath as opposed to being out in the bright spotlight that a lot of people seem to seek. and I don’t have anything against their works for sale..what I take issue with is this need to place a label on it for the new and fluff to gobble up as if at some sort of damn smorgasbord, gathering up all the chotzkes , all the shineys and of course candles galore in every color and nuance …it all invariably gets labelled for “white magic(k)”, and to me that shows the ignorance behind what is offered. Even if someone had enough sense to buy this and use it in a wise way, the stupidity with how its presented will turn those with more than a semblance of education to turn away. but maybe its not to those who do so that you wish to line your pockets with huh? You intend to sell to the fluff, those who think they need to buy any and all that you have to offer without even knowing the significance of the items. Yeah, well, I think I will stick to my shadows and fend for myself, thanks just the same. I am allergic to bullshit and stupidity, no matter the direction it comes.
