happiness is...(3)

[athenagrey]

 I'm happy that I don't have to go out in the rain today. There are some major benefits in working from home and this is one of them. I love rainy days from the inside of my snug Aerie.

I still have a couple of hours of work to get done today, and then I can spin some yarn and continue my meditations in the heart of the spiral. I have come to a place of peace and am acutely aware that peace, like light, is something you carry with you. If there's one thing I have learned as a witch, it is that the Goddess will guide you, but you have to move your own feet and make your own way through life. Pack sensibly because the road is long and uneven.

Remember that bag I wove to be a symbolic container for the things one carries through life? I never chose to post a photograph, because the inside of the bag, the SPACE it encompasses, is more important than the design of the fabric.  That bag. That's where I keep the light and the peace so that they will be with me when I need them.

What do you carry through your life?

I am always grateful for your posts. Your writing is beautifully evocative.

Thank you. It took years for me to learn to let the inner voice speak.
