## Caption

When I first moved here, I felt a subtle pressure to fit in with everything, including holidays I didn’t really connect with. At first, I told myself it was harmless fun, but eventually, I had to sit down and have a real conversation with myself about what I actually believe and stand for as a Christian.

Maturing is being able to confidently say, “I don’t celebrate Halloween because it doesn’t align with my values,” and not feel the need to explain further.

Have you ever had to step back from something that everyone around you was doing because it didn’t align with your values?
