Being a greek myself I was raised as an Christian Orthodox, the ultimate religion in Greece. If you are anything else you are considered as a heretic-nothing more or less. Our religion here is like an identity, really close related to our ethnicity - and even 3 years before it was written on our identity card.
I never had a problem with that and even tried to be a "correct" Christian as our church demanded. Growing up though I felt like I didn't fit into Orthodox Christianity, the religion itself with its conventions filled me with regrets..On the other hand I felt a strong kind of a calling...I tried to ignore that feeling but it was impossible..I knew something about Wicca and thought that this was the right thing for me..I tried to get informed about this religion but the more I learned about itand started believing into it the more i had fearful thoughts, uneasy sleeping and strange visualizations, but I'm still not sure what was this all about. So, I stopped all this and together stopped my nighmares too. Today being 20 years old I keep considering myself as a Christian Orthodox but deep down I know i'm not..
Here in Greece I i wasn't able to find someone to instruct me yet..
I would like to hear your advice or opinions..And thanks for your time for reading my story.
