Renewed and re-convicted
My last post was a little rough, a reflection of my own inner conflict and relative trails - I am renewed and re-convicting now. Maybe it was Ostara, my friends, or just the right words at the right time, but I am re-affirmed and feeling much better now.
This Path comes with its own difficult times, trails, and difficulties. Some of these are objective and we can charge ahead, some are elusive and subjective, and are much more difficult (IMHO) to confront. I faced a few of my own unbidden shadows, and while I have not returned wholly restored, I am renewed. I cannot sit down and call a time out or quit. That's not really an option.
To my detractors - go plant a tree. I could really care less what you would like the truth to be, and I can hardly imagine why anyone would willingly promote and defend a lie knowing full well you conceived it yourselves. That is not only sad, it is sick, and I feel very badly for you.
To those who gave kind words and support. Thank you. I needed to hear it. If what I say means anything to anyone, I feel good to keep speaking.
A couple of ideas I had:
- I am considering daily adorations and other small actions to help strengthen my own conviction.
- Maybe picking times beyond Imbolc to re-dedicate. Something to keep chosen obligations and convictions fresh in mind.
- Write, talk, show... teach... be more active in sharing ideas and thoughts with people who are sincerely interested in receiving them; Maybe that will help keep the spirit nourished.
I must admit I am not 100% right now, but I feel much better about where I am at - for the most part - and I already feel my passion and perceptions changing, evolving, and growing. Its a good place.
For now....
Blessed Be....
