So here I am. It's been many years for me on this journey now but I find myself becoming more environmentally aware with each passing season and I feel myself being drawn into this path of becoming more of an environmental voice in my area. And as I let myself be drawn in, I can feel Gaia's touch and approval even stronger within me.
Years ago I was speaking with a friend about how she knew when she was supposed to become a priestess of her patron deity and she said she just knew. I have also heard some friends talk about challenges their patrons have given them to complete before dedicating themselves. Until now I have felt a strong connection with Gaia but never felt it was the time to dedicate myself to her. Did I have the time? Did I have the commitment? But now I feel like that time is coming nearer. It's not here yet, but it's within sight.
So here I am. ~smile~
