The importance of being seen
The importance of being seen
Or, what I learned at church today. I wasn’t sure what to pick today, so I went with this. LOL. I went to UU services today. The service touched on a sampling of the variety of holidays we all celebrate this month: Solstice, Hanukkah, Christmas, Kwanzaa. We had a Solstice story and hymn, a Hanukkah meditation and hymn, an Advent homily, and a Kwanzaa video. It was very nice to get this sampling…

The 8th Principle of Unitarian Universalism
The 8th Principle of Unitarian Universalism
Borrowed with permission from Rev. Paula Cole-Jones. I’ve definitely been getting more into UUism lately. I’m joining groups and reading books, and I even volunteered to be my church’s Collecting Treasurer, a role I take over on July 1st. (Do I know what I’m doing? Heck, no. When has that ever stopped me?) One of the groups concerns promoting the 8th Principle and getting it passed in our…

Back with the UUs...probably?
Back with the UUs…probably?
So I went to church today. No, my faith didn’t change, but my interpretation of it did somewhat.
Longtime readers of this blog – all three of you 🙂 – will remember that I left the Unitarian Universalist Church in Tallahassee because they seemed overfond of the word “blessed” for my taste. I wasn’t convinced that my faith, Kemeticism, really involved that particular word. It sounded too Christian…

The real reason for the season
It’s that time again. I hope that whatever holiday(s) you’ve celebrated/are celebrating this year, that they are joyous and full of love. Be well, everyone. Reblogged from a 2016 post: I was doing rite to Hathor, the Lady of Love, today (i.e. December 16), and something came to me. Maybe it isn’t earth-shattering, but I wanted to share it with you guys. Let’s not lose sight of this during the…

Doing the Akhu Rite for my mother
Doing the Akhu Rite for my mother
My mother, Eileen Pare. May 29-1943-May 11, 2020
I’ve continued doing Devo’s Making Ma’at rites into this year (and really have no intention of stopping, unless the world becomes miraculously better). Two days ago, I did the Akhu Rite for my mother for the first time.
Now, technically, I suppose I cheated. I think this rite is supposed to be used for those bas who have become akhu – in…

Getting over guilt
Image by Pexels from Pixabay. Enhancement by me in Luminar 4 and Paint Shop Pro 7. I’ve had a rough time with this one lately. Anyone else? I don’t know if it’s the “obsessive thoughts” part of obsessive-compulsive disorder or the fact that I’m still kind of a recovering Catholic, even though I’ve partly returned to that faith, but either way, I am just haunted by guilt. Maybe the word…

The real reason for the season (2024 edition)
It’s a little weird to talk about love being the reason for the season when so many of us are surrounded by not-love. Especially for those of us in the US (but soon perhaps, elsewhere too, regretfully), we have been pummeled and badgered by the results of a brutal election – not brutal physically, not brutal with street riots (I don’t think), but brutal in the promise of a government that…

Be well, Matt Dillahunty
Be well, Matt Dillahunty
A screenshot from an old video that has little relevance except that Matt’s the guy I’m posting about tonight. At the beginning of tonight’s Atheist Experience, Matt Dillahunty announced that this would be his last show. “Well,” I thought, “if I’m going to call in, it’s now or never.” You see, in an earlier video, I had heard Matt say that he had never had a believer tell him, “Yes, I believe,…

A prayer to Aset in the Unyear 2020
A prayer to Aset in the Unyear 2020
In my locality, the Unyear started on Saturday, but I have been singularly unmotivated this year to do anything for it. I did rite on Wesir’s Day (Saturday) and that’s about it. But I did find the energy to write this prayer to my patron, on Her birthday.
