I need to get back to honoring my path.  I have lax about it for so very long; I do not know if it is the loss of coven, the busy-ness of life, or just an apathy that has overwhelmed me.  I live in this wonderful area with acres to spare and a ready-made clearing in the woods, yet I have done nothing formal for over 2 years.  The basic everyday thing, yes…a planned out ritual, no.  I know a lot of it has to do with the fact that I have no place to display my altar and we cannot burn incense in the house, but that is not a good reason to forgo getting out and doing something. 

I need a place to go that is used for that purpose and that purpose only. it may be a holdover from my southern Baptist youth, but the symbolism is important to me.  The act of preparing and standing in front of the altar is very meaningful to me.  I think that I will do some researching and write a ritual re-dedicating myself to the path I have chosen.  I need to push myself to do this.

A video

I am trying my hand at some video making.  This is the trip we took up Mount Washington in New Hampshire.  We went on the next to last day of the auto road being open and only got to go to the half way point because the weather at the summit was icy.  Even where we stopped was windy and cold!  

Enjoy!

I have always disliked retarded and taught my children to never use it.  I am happy to have the opportunity to sign this pledge and pass that opportunity on to others.
