Devotional
I'm going to try and document my religious devotionals and trances here. If you are not interested in Druidry, you can just skip over these posts when you see the word DEVOTIONAL ( Read more... ) -
Two Years Later...
It's about two years later and I find myself thinking about livejournal and all of the great writing and poetry I did here. Since then I have jump started my illustration career, I have become a Druid, I have travelled to California and back. I tried to do the whole blog thing, but for some reason, it just felt lonely. I miss the community here... ( Read more... ) -

Life - that pesky process of making your own way
I know this has been a long process, but something hit me this weekend - I have very little worries in life now. It’s not that I don’t have difficulties, but it’s just that I’m choosing not to worry about them. I think it started when I first gave myself the allowance to walk away from people and situations that I don’t want to be around. The next ( Read more... )
