I posted this Blog on my other site so I guess I should post it here too :) … I have been following this path since 2000. I started out as a catholic and never really “felt” the spiritual presence of anything. I started following the path of the feather and sort of “felt” something; I don’t know I felt safe in a circle with my Native American sister, eager to learn her ways as they seemed to give her good guidance during rough times, it was a really low time for me and her guidance and counsel gave me such hope, and strength to carry on. When I left that path, I still carried some of her teachings in my heart. I started following the reclaiming path as they have groups that are clean and sober type groups. Sadly I haven’t found a group close by so I continue to study the books and talk to my friends on-line. The thing is after all these years of research and trial and error I still don’t “feel” the presence of the divine… I try so hard to get things right, but I guess I have fallen short some how. I am tenacious so I will keep trying until the Great Mother sends a mentor or touches my soul during my rituals or meditations. It seems the older I get the more I tend to question everything. Faith is a tough thing at times. Sometimes all I can manage is a please in the morning and a thank you at night. May the great Mother Goddess bless us all. The only thing I am sure of is that she is “out there” and she had the power to alter lives. Blessings to you all…

Since I posted this I have decided to take the suggestion of another friend just let it come naturally and not try and force it... Hugs to you all...
