New Journey
Blessings upon one and all. 'Tis a new day, a new opportunity to begin again.
I wish to thank all of you who took the time to forward your condolences to me for the loss of my life-partner. 'Tis been a difficult time, to say the least, near unbearable. But the time has come to re-enter life, for all is as was meant to be. And while there will always be an empty place in my heart and soul, I have only to bring forth my memories to renew my bruised and battered spirit.
Many of you wondered if this blog would continue and I say to you, "aye and it will for there is much work to be done." 'Twould be easy to call it quits in this journey called life and leave the work to others but that, my fellow travelers, is not my way. Each of us has a calling; some, more than one, and to desert one's calling is to lose at life; to leave undone that which one is put here to do. And so...
The beginning will be difficult; at best, and I ask you to bear with me until I am again at full speed. I am blessed in that I have a wonderful and supportive family to help see me through my grief, but this evening I would tell you of the blessings of friends and comrades who have quietly but determinedly been giving me gentle nudges to go forward, rather than linger in the past.
Kaithlin, my wonderful, loyal assistant... The Vampyre Garth, my true friend and confidant... the esteemed Warlock Gregory and his partner, the Sorceress JoHaunna and their family... my newest and dear friend, the Vampyre Roman... and all the other esteemed visitors who have helped to make this blog the success that it is: I wish to thank all of you for your behind the scenes assistance in my time of need. To those of you who gave, selflessly of yourselves; prayer chants, circles of protection and healing, I thank you from the deepest part of my being.
I welcome my staff back and thank you all for keeping the business end of my responsibilities running smoothly in my absence.
I have given some thought to what would be a good beginning for the blog site and as there is much work to be done, I thought perhaps bringing new visitors here would serve to get us off to a good start. In order to reach new interested parties I thought we might begin by offering an incentive to our regular visitors, you, in the effort to reach out to others. My staff came up with the idea of offering a gift to the visitor who gets the most new people to visit our blog. Now, the only thing I can see that might be wrong with that is that, sadly, someone will invent names and e-mail addresses (has happened before) in order to win. Some of those we will be able to detect, but many will go undetected. So, my staff has said that rather than worry over the matter, we should put everyone on the honor system and go with it. I have agreed.
If you will recall, Kaithlin once gave you the address of the woman who designs and creates beautiful capes for me. They are her own custom designs of high quality fabric and workmanship so I will purchase one as the gift for the winner. They are costly and not sold on the mass market; a remarkable garment, of which I own several. The object is to reach a broader audience in order to get neccessary information out there so if you are interested in owning an exclusive garment that can be worn for a number of different occassions, we will begin tommorrow, April 21st, and end on June 21st, which is summer solstice.
In the near future we will be gearing up for the Witch's holidays, with special events on our calender that we will offer a select few of you the opportunity to attend. Aye, and it is time to bring some of you into our realm; to meet and greet you and speak with you about opportunities available to you. I know it has been a long time coming, letting others into our midst, but the time is nigh. I have not forgotten those of you who have requested to meet with us and we will begin working toward that end.
In the meantime, I will also be getting ready to publish my book and when it becomes available the time and place will be noted, here. Once again, I thank all of you who sent condolences; particularly, Onyxroots, Jeremiah, Ashley, and Grayson for your kind and thoughtful words. Blessed May You Be, Dream Teller.
