I do not know many people in Singapore who like to write or want to live on being able to write. So in Singapore I would be a dying breed of people who want to be heard and not be delegated to serve the citizens and foreigners their hot cup of coffee, no foam.
I have a passion for esoteric knowledge, to call it new ageism is contrary to the fact that this type knowledge is very old.

Elliot Perlman and my best friend, Ahmad

Religion & Spirituality > Pagan & Earth-Based Religions Testimonies: Why I am Pagan

4 of 34

I chose to be a pagan. If I think about it now, being a pagan was not a whimsical decision; it grew upon me out of nowhere, it was an existential decision. But to set things straight, I used to be of another faith. I'm a born catholic: meaning my mother was a catholic, so in giving birth to me she had me baptized and in legal paper terms, I would be catholic for life. Most born Catholics' are not most ardent of worshippers of the Roman Catholic faith, in fact, you would most likely to catch them nodding off in the pews on early Sunday mornings. So you can imagine me being one of those who'...
