Dear Writing: A Love Letter

Dear Writing: A Love Letter

I think writing broke my heart. 

How do you process this grief ? How do you look a concept in the face and tell it how much you hurt for it? How much have you longed for it though you have run the other way at every opportunity for reconciliation? 

How do we find and discover  this grief when we can find a million other useful things to do besides?

When I was younger I was a writer and I would…

Into The Shadows And Dark Lore Of Imbolc

Etymology of Stag: From Middle English steg, stagge, from Old English stagga, stacga (“a stag”) and Old Norse steggi, steggr (“a male animal”), both from Proto-Germanic staggijô, staggijaz(“male, male deer, porcupine”), probably from Proto-Indo-European steg, steng (“to sting; rod, blade; sharp, stiff”).  When we follow a word to it's root we find more meaning in the thing itself. We are given the words to shift our perspective, to understand more deeply. #etymology #words #language #stag #middleenglish #norse #animal #male #knowledge #insight #root #meaning #vehemenceandemergence https://www.instagram.com/p/BqPschWHZwx/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=efzmqbk6527z

"Real magic can never be made by offering someone else's liver. You must tear out your own, and not expect to get it back." Peter S. Beagle from The Last Unicorn Do we truly understand sacrifice? I always look for the win-win but maybe that's where I've gone wrong. What gifts wait on the other side of sacrifice? #magick #sacrifice #devotion #spirit #pagan #power #truth #quotes #petersbeagle #thelastunicorn #offering #quote #lightening #magic #gifts #vehemenceandemergence https://www.instagram.com/p/BqPlO75H3iz/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=28lw13xsnmkx

Of old sat Freedom on the heights,  The thunders breaking at her feet:  Above her shook the starry lights:  She heard the torrents meet.  There in her place she did rejoice,  Self-gather'd in her prophet-mind,  But fragments of her mighty voice  Came rolling on the wind.  Then stept she down thro' town and field  To mingle with the human race,  And part by part to men reveal'd  The fulness of her face--  Grave mother of majestic works,  From her isle-altar gazing down,  Who, God-like, grasps the triple forks,  And, King-like, wears the crown:  Her open eyes desire the truth.  The wisdom of a thousand years  Is in them. May perpetual youth  Keep dry their light from tears;  That her fair form may stand and shine,  Make bright our days and light our dreams,  Turning to scorn with lips divine  The falsehood of extremes! by Alfred Lord Tennyson #poem #poetry #tennyson #goddess #alfredlordtennyson #freedom #mother #moon #stars #divine #poet #majestic #truth #vehemenceandemergence https://www.instagram.com/p/BqF4yCmHzIH/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=19n7alqmtxt3s

"Persons in whom a crisis takes place pass the night preceding the paroxysm uncomfortably, but the succeeding night generally more comfortably." Hippocrates from Aphorisms Painting is a somewhat dramatic depiction of how I feel these nights.

Growth is really uncomfortable. I am having situations arise in my life that I want nothing to do with and then I realise they are lessons. I challenge myself to stay with them, to say yes, and on the other side I can say I am better for it. That doesn't mean I don't want it to stop, that I don't want to give up and hide, but with persisting, at least I know I've tried. #growth https://www.instagram.com/p/Bp7pCceHHV0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1lngiavgia7kf

Moving into the season of hibernation I am reflecting on habits within my home. Let's start where the day begins! I would like to hear from people about their morning routines and habits. What is your morning ritual and how do you sustain it!? I think it will help me find something that works better for me and maybe help others too!
