To those who are just catching up...After leaving
Destrehan High in the middle of my junior year, I went to a little bitty school way out in the middle of nowhere, which is
where I graduated. After graduation, I went to LSU for a year, where I had a little trouble deciding what I wanted to do,
so I decided to join the Army. In the Army, I learned to speak Arabic (Joy, What fun!). For those of you who were there with
me, you understand what I mean. While in the service, I met Jason. Ok, now I admit that he was a big mistake, at least to
marry him. Yes, we got married and were married for five years. We did manage to get one thing right in the marriage and that
was our two beautiful children, Kyle Matthew and Kayla Michelle. I came out of the service right after I got pregnant with
Kyle. Jason came out shortly thereafter and we moved to Nevada. We stayed there until Kyle was almost a year old and then
we moved to Alabama. Almost three years later, I had Kayla. However, on her first birthday (ironic, isn't it) I filed for
divorce. During my divorce from Jason, I had one very special friend that was always there no matter what. I can't count
the number of times that I cried on his shoulder at two or three in the morning. We remained just friends for about
a year and then we decided to take a chance and become something more. At that point in time, we were both young and
immature. Things didn't work out, so we broke up. His girlfriend after me stopped us from even being friends so
we didn't speak for five years. In December of 2004, he happened to come into the store where I was working. At
first things were very tense, but he told me he had been looking for me for some time as he had some things that he wanted
to say to me. He told me that he was sorry for what had happened all those years ago, that he was wrong and hoped that
we could put it behind us and we could become friends again. He gave me his cell phone number and told me to call him.
The next evening, the kids and I went out to dinner with him. He is a truck driver and had to leave the next day.
We spent almost the entire week on the phone together. During this week, he told me that he had never stopped loving
me. One thing led to another and on September 10, 2005, he and I were married.
For those of you who don't know, while I was in the service, I discovered Wicca. After studying and reading for a while,
I decided that this was the path that I wanted to travel. The title of the website is my craft name. It was chosen because
I live in an area where Paganism is taken as Satanism. When I am practicing my craft, I shine very brightly. However, for
the most part, I tend to remain hidden. Hence, Hiding Bryte Star. Part of the reason that I started this website was the
fact that I sort of got tired answering the "obvious" questions. "Why are you a witch?" "How do
I become one?" Please don't take it as I don't want to answer questions about my beliefs...it isn't that at all. However,
it's a lot easier to say go look at the website and read it there than to answer the same question over and over.
