A short story about me finding my faith
I am a person who has never thought they'd be religious. The idea of Christianity or Catholosism never felt right for me, I didn't think it was ever something I could relate to. Recently I have changed my mind about this, I still do not believe in the idea of a single God, but I have found faith in Hellenistic Polytheism. I week ago this began and after asking for help I found it, my alter currently is for both Hades and Apollo and this has made me feel less alone and as if I actually matter in this world. My reason for making this does not relate to either of these two gods, but instead the goddess Athena.

I attempted comunicating through dice with the gods and it was a simple dice. Even for yes, odd for no. The roll for if Athena was reaching out to me was an even number and I was slightly skeptical. At school today, I found a praying mantis, for one I have only seen them once before in my entire life and they are quite rare where I live. For those who do not know praying mantis are a known sign of the goddess Athena, so I greatly thank her for this sign.
