Greetings...
Well, this is a tough one... I was raised Catholic, but I knew when I was in high school that Catholocism (or Christianity at all) was not the right path for me. Although at the time I read a great deal about occult subjects, it did not hit me until later (college years) that I was (and am) in fact pagan. I was at a point in my life where I was not too concerned about spirituality (as many college kids aren't) and so I didn't explore my feelings until just before graduation. I suppose you can say I was a "non-practicing pagan!" :)
I started then, by reading about Wicca and exploring my feelings and beliefs. It's been a few years and now I do not consider myself to be a Wiccan, but a Witch, following a Celtic path.
It's interesting to sit down and really think about when one starts on thier path!
