I love the ideas and stories behind witches. I grew up hearing about the salem trials and the lynching of suspicious women. With my love for strong female roles, I was drawn to the tales. I was of course enraged that innocent women were being murdered, but I like to think that the idea of witches is true and that they didn't go down without a fight. Especially after the new movie The Witch and all the new renditions of the history following these types of women, my obsession for powerful women grows and flourishes.

Recently I feel as if I have run into a few spiritual walls. Perhaps it is because I am moving soon, or that I quit my job and have much more free time, but I feel as if I'm not grounded. A few weeks ago I would act and do things with ease always trying to be positive and peaceful, but now I feel myself sinking back into negative situations. Perhaps I need a reawakening or a cleanse.. or perhaps I'm destined to live a materialistic life free from any spiritual guidance. This also reminds me of a friend of mine I saw the other day; he was discussing how humans have come so far in life and evolution and how we've created such a dynamic system for ourselves, when in all actuality we are just animals that live, breed, and die like everything else in the world. I reflected on myself as a human and was disappointed at how I try and fit in, following cultures and trends when I should focus on my soul desires and vocation of life.

After viewing the Dante's Inferno animation, it reminded me of the Gods of War games. I began to watch game plays of the third game and in the end of the walkthrough, the almighty Zeus gets murdered by his son. The idea of a son murdering their father is peculiar itself, but imagining mankind killing God is intriguing. Although we can not physically kill the being because he is not tangible, we can destroy him through lessons. If the idea of God becomes irrelevant and no one passes down the lessons of him, he will die along with the religion.
