I have taken 30 trips around the sun. I have lived, laughed, loved, cried, fought, and fallen in love for 30 years. While that number isn't as "great" as the numbers my friends and family can claim, I am happy with it.
As I have mentioned in past posts, I love Loki but my heart belongs to Brigid. Not only is it my birthday, but I also have a flame tending shift for Her today. I am having a hard time not seeing that as a sign.
I have been struggling with the idea of who I am in regards Her and the faces of the Goddess for a few months.
I am not a maiden by any stretch of the imagination, but I am also not the traditional idea of a mother.
It is my hope, and if I am honest with myself my birthday wish, that I will be able to call myself a Priestess of Brigid by the time I have completed my 40th trip around the sun.
And on that note... I have nothing else to say besides:
Hail Brigid,
Breo-saighead - Flaming Arrow.
Fire of Inspiration.
Smith of so much more than metal.
Lady of Fire and Water.
You are my heart.
You are my passion.
You are my Goddess.
I honor you today.
Hail Brigid.
