Kiama
This is the latest news inthe ever growing drama that is my life...
Lets start at the start. Established fact #1: I write stuff for a Pagan parenting magazine called Triple Spiral.
Established fact #2: I've bee trying to work out how to tell my Dad that I'm Pagan for quite a while now.
Right, today I got a phone call from the editor of the magazine I write for. She said that a woman from October Films had contacted her, looking for people to be involved in the documentary she is working on, about family dynamics and the generation gap between teenagers and their parents. She is looking for either Pagan parents, or Pagan teenagers with non-Pagan parents. I said yes, I'd talk to my Mum and see if she was okay with doing this.
I was on the phone to Mum, and she said it would be okay with her, and she thought Dad wouldn't mind either. I was confused: But, Dad doesn't know I'm Pagan, does he? Well, she said... He dosn't know the full in's and out's of it, but he knows. How? How does he know? He just guessed, she said....
So, I have spoken alot with this documentary woman, and discussed what it's about, and she asked me some questions, then said she'd give me a call after she's met up with her producer, and arrange a meetng with me and my family...
So, it turns out that after all my worrying and deliberating, my Dad already knew about my religion. After two years of torturing myself over all this, he knows.
He knows. And we're gonna be on TV about all this. It's certainly going to be an experience....
