thanks! i led the service with our DRE (Director of Religious Education*) too.
*well, we want to call the RE program "Religious Exploration" but it's been Religious Education for a lonnnnng time, but Religious Exploration is actually more accurate. |
Wow! That sounds like a pretty big thing! Congrats! ^_^
|
thanks. it kinda was a big thing. =)
one of the guys even said i should be a regular lay leader. well, it's all right, but i'm not really a fan of speaking to audiences... |
I'll be drawing. Samhain is about creativity to me...
|
I'll be doing a bit of smudge work after I get done with a halloween party... and reminiscing, unless I can get a few things to make a travel alter on Thursday. Then I'll do a bit more than just smudge work.
|
my girls have invited friends over for a halloween party... they've had friends over for the past six years. they made their costumes this year again (they did last year).
Samhain, for me, is a time to remember who has come before; and also for letting go of things that are harmful to you. |
I can't do anything too big this year because I just realized that my mum and baby brother are coming up the next day to babysit while me and my partner go into London for a concert... It'll probably be a day of quiet reflection remembering my son though...
|
ooh, i'd love to be able to just go into London for...whatever. few problems: big pond to cross, i'd need to update my passport... yeah. =)
*hugs* |
Ocean spirits say: Umm...where's our pay for crossing?
(Forgive my humor. It's weird sometimes) |
see? i'd have to pay the ocean spirits too.
(my humor is kinda weird too. :f-mew:) |
Lol... I live just outside London in Kent ^_^;; Going into London is still quite a big deal even for me though ^_^ I always end up spending too much money (mostly in chinatown) but thankfully we are just going to the Royal Albert Hall to see the Final Fantasy : Distant Worlds concert then coming straight home again ^_^
Ocean Spirits can be a pain if not properly appeased or not favoured by them... ^_^;; ( I love all sorts of humor, although mine is a little off most of the time) |
that still sounds cool!
i'm about 45 minutes to an hour from Center City Philly, but i hate driving in the city. i'm also not that far from NYC, but when your budget for excursions is $0, you pretty much don't go anywhere. back in June, my daughters and i did go to Philly ComicCon. took the train, that was fun. :) |
That sounds much like us, except that we also don't have a lot of free time to go anywhere we want to go (and I don't drive)... ^_^ I wanted to go to London MCM Expo last weekend but we needed to tidy the house in preparation for my mum and brothers arrival, as we don't have a lot of time to do that in the evenings and it's nearly all my partners crap strewn everywhere that needs sorting... >.<;;

Still kind of thinking about how to observe this year while still having to live in a non-pagan household with my Mother. Possibly will try baking cookies. Definitely want to make a sincere try of it.
|
@Awen - it's mostly my stuff that's all over the place... and my kids' stuff.
@Witchchylde - i found Paganism when i was an adult (and had been married and out of my parents' house for 5 years) but i'm still in the broom closet as far as they're concerned. pretty much everyone else knows. i hope you're able to celebrate & observe in a meaningful way. *hugs* |
Witchchylde, perhaps some service? Helping one another, or take a walk around your block, collecting trash/recycling?
(For Halloween once, I collected ~80 books to give to a school for kids whose parents were institutionalized.) |
