I don't even know where to begin with this. This complaint's been building up over the past couple of weeks, and truthfully I don't even know if I'll have the time to type it before she yanks me off the computer by my hair.
Now, my mother is generally in a bitchy mood. Understandable, seeing as we're broke and it doesn't seem like we're going to come across any money any time soon. Any other time, she's a great parent.
However, the other day everything fucking toppled over on top of me.
The bitch found a handmade pentacle in my room.
For the record, I'm just now really getting into Paganism. The only reason I can even really call myself a Pagan is because I'm a staunch animist(always have been) and I have an undying adoration for anything occult. Again, I always have.
Another fun note is, I have weird stuff all over my room. I have a broomstick that I made. A little brass cauldron that I keep change in. A crystal ball. An ankh rosary. With all this weird shit that she hasn't a problem with, she flipped the fuck out over me having made a pentacle out of jewelry wire.
I attempted to explain to her the history of the symbol(You know, like how it started out as a Christian icon which was beat by the cross when the church was trying to select their logo), but no. No matter what I told her, she cut me off, smacked me in the face and told me that I was a devil-worshiping lesbian and that I'd never have any friends.
Also, that no boy would ever want me, that I was going to Hell, that I would never have a good job and that I'm stupid, uneducated and I never read a book in my life.
This is the woman who quoted Dante's Inferno and thought it was the Bible.
Over the past couple days, she's been stressing that only Christians are good people, anybody that isn't a Christian is miserable and all Christians are perfectly happy( Mom, you're a Christian and you hate your life, and your friend Tanya is a damn Creationist and weighs five hundred and twenty pounds and makes her daughter do her work for her because she's too depressed to move. You call that happy?), all of my Dad's problems are because he's a Godless heathen(He's agnostic), and that I should be enrolled in the military because nobody wants to give me a scholarship. Also, if I don't wanna go to the military, I'll end up in a brothel as a prostitute because I have no morals.
She's said all of this with absolute certainty, and it disgusts me that a woman who has never even picked up a Bible spews all this rotten bullshit at her own daughter.
The worst part of it is, I'm scared to go back to school because I know I'm going to be harassed for my beliefs, and I don't even have a parent to back me up when I come home crying.
tl;dr I really shoulda gone to Help with Life, but fuck it.
But forcing religion upon another is just well, I'm not going to say because I wish not to offend your mother no matter how much of a c--t she is being. Also if she is physically abusing you then more stuff to go to court with.
Side not, my mother is Pagan, or however you spell it.
Yep, not even joking. But reassuringly she reminds me that I can choose what ever religion I want. But shes reluctant to mention that with some religions. Anywho:
How could any woman be so dumb. maybe it's the stress making her go completely insane but that is a sickening thing to say to your own child. None of that is true. Religion has nothing to do with how you go on with your life, its how you use that Religion to affect your life. Any person can be of almost any religion and live happy as long as he has done their fair share or done what will benefit them. And Even a pentacle doesn't automatically mean you are of another religion (Though you are)b Jewelry is Jewelry and some people find it to be a pretty design. Also, shoving some bullshit about how this one piece of jewelry or this one title can ruin your life is dumb. We're are all people trying to live as well as we can and just because out beliefs may be different means nothing to what we can do. Not all Christians live happy, not all Buddhists live happy, not all Jews live happy and every area around it and imbetween. Your mother sounds completely unreasonable and is saying things no real mother should even think of saying to their child. I don;t care who it is, those things hurt a person, just to be heard from their own mothers mouth. I mean, now that I've read this you already hear some of these things in school which is already bad enough. but to have it come from your mother is another thing. People you don't know well are pretty easy to brush of but when a person so close begins to say these things it's almost scarring. I'm sorry that your mother is being like this with you. But I hope you know that all she's saying is utter bullshit and just maybe it's because of all the stress. And oh do I hope it's the stress because, I really don't know how to condone such... such profanity, I would say, being told from a mother to her daughter. She's being one-sided. That's all. I'm sorry, again.
I love you, Mitsu. So much.
And sorry for the big ass rant. Misunderstanding and Religion gets me riled up.
