    hi.yes.i came into witchcraft because i was searching! i had always been unhappy with christanity and its hypocrisy.i was in the military on Anglesey and my then girlfriend introduced me to a coven of witches.from the very first time i felt as if  i had come home  it resonated with me on all levels.i had been brought up on a farm so the fact that witchcraft is a nature-based religion just felt RIGHT.
    the first time  i worked skyclad with them i got such a feeling of love/peace/magic/well being that i knew from that moment i had found what i had been searching for. 
    i then sought out people who could take me on to teach me and after some 30 years i have now achieved high priest status.
    hope this helps..bright blessings Arrow
