I don’t know which current pagan needs to hear this but your life doesn’t have to revolve around your religion. Every act of self care doesn’t have to be devotional, every meal you make doesn’t have to lose a portion to sacrifice.

You’re allowed to be casually religious, a “Yule Pagan” if you want to steal “Christmas Christian” from the Jesus club. You’re allowed to dedicate a day or two to worship and just stare at the sky or ground and mutter the rest of the week.

Just because the world sees your religion as invalid doesn’t mean you have to go into overdrive and let it consume every aspect of your life.

Memento Mori Ring, anonymous, c. 1620 - c. 1650

The passage in the opened book ‘’t Leven is mijn Christi, Sterven is mijn Gewin’ (For me to live is Christ, and to die is gain), the skull with the hourglass, and the angel reminded the ring’s wearer of the transience of earthly life. Inscribed on the inside of it is: ‘ons leven is een schadú op aerde’ (our life on earth is a shadow). (Source)
