And comes the silence . . .

I have about three posts halfway written for the Pagan Blog project, and . . . I don’t want to post them. Headcoverings and modesty revisited, hero and hero-worship. It isn’t apathy, exactly, but it’s impatience with misunderstandings (hypothetical at this point) and miscommunication and a need to retreat and draw inward.

Travel is impending, and that may be part of the whole thing.

Work comes slowly on the devotional, as a result, and is frustrating. A lot of the writing has ground to a halt, which is also frustrating. Not a very happy post, this, and not spiritually relevant expect as a reminder — twenty years into my paganhood, over a decade of being Poseidon’s, and I still have to return to the simple foundations and beginnings and remember to see to the nourishment of my spirit, sometimes to the expense of all else. This is about walking the path, and sharing it, in hopes that it might prove useful, but not getting caught up in whether or not anyone else is looking. Reminders are good things.

Poseidon rocks. Odin’s kinda awesome too.

  1. Sometimes it seems like all we can do is come back to the beginning again. Funny that…

  2. I may have more to say on the headcovering issue after all, at least a few brief comments for an H post. But it makes me tired, because once again it all seems to come back to the almost willful misunderstandings.

    Did you know that I’m a “young” woman–in the sense of not being old enough to remember the “feminist struggle?” Apparently I am. ;P

    • Well, it’s hardly your fault, though, dear, oppressed as you are.

  3. I, too, have been in a relatively quiet mood. I blame mine on stress, but I’ve been quiet regardless of the reason.

    Funny, the work on my devotional has kinda been put off for a bit. Mainly because I’m focused quite a bit on a fantasy novel at the moment, and the short story collection as well. But I will get back to it eventually! :P

  4. Reminders are, indeed, good things. {{hugs}}
