What does being a Druid look like on a random Monday morning?

Mel’s Monday Musings: December 17, 2018

December 17, 2018December 17, 2018 ~ melstery

Every year for the past five years or so, in the final weeks of December, I've chosen a word for the following year. My "word of the year" (you've probably seen the concept in a dozen places by now) encompasses a trait or a goal or something else that I hope will serve as a … Continue reading Mel’s Monday Musings: December 17, 2018

Why You Should Question Your Religion

December 11, 2017 ~ melstery

[This is an import from an old blog. Originally posted 01.06.11.] (Note: I am not suggesting that any particular religion or spiritual path is inferior to any other. It is my conviction that everyone should at some point question what they believe.) Why should you question your religion? Not every point here may apply to … Continue reading Why You Should Question Your Religion

Advancing on the Tide (from the FB files)

June 22, 2016 ~ melstery

I used to think that being isolated from the world at large would be terrible. I have come to that turning point when I most often crave less interaction, fewer headlines (and less blood boiling all around), not more. I kinda had that pegged for age 65ish, not 33. Huh. And yet...responding less, speaking out … Continue reading Advancing on the Tide (from the FB files)

Beetle Jesus

April 8, 2016April 8, 2016 ~ melstery ~ 1 Comment

Do you step around a beetle crawling across your path, or do you keep going? (Sorry, bug, sucks to be you. Shouldn't have been in my way.) It will probably surprise few that I stepped around one this morning (and almost tripped over my own two feet in the process, because I'm super-coordinated before 7am … Continue reading Beetle Jesus

Use Your Magic

April 6, 2016January 30, 2023 ~ melstery

It's been a minute. I've been sorting through some pesky life questions and am still uncertain as to where this blog is going. That's OK for now. Years ago, someone hit me squarely between the eyes with a few simple words -- words that were echoed not long ago by someone else, who could not … Continue reading Use Your Magic

How’s Your Straw?

February 29, 2016February 29, 2016 ~ melstery ~ 2 Comments

I live in a fairly arid area that does terrible things to my hair and skin (I clearly was not meant to live here, heh). My hair is frizzy anyway, but this environment makes it worse, so I've learned to put both a thick leave-in conditioner and a certain amount of oil in it after … Continue reading How’s Your Straw?
