Yule/Christmas is fast approaching, and I have decided on what I call a “surf & turf” menu. Atlantic salmon, cornish game hen, mashed potatoes & gravy, green beans with slmond slivers and garnish, & cranberry sauce. I found some easy bake recipes for the meat, potatoes, and green beans that look absolutely delicious.
I look forward to having my own home where I can decorate to honor my spiritual heritage. Living in a non-spiritual household has become increasingly more difficult. My family does not understand my beliefs, though they can’t really say anything about it. There is a certain level of disapproval.
I have gotten to the point where I honestly don’t care what my family thinks about my “kooky” beliefs. I’ve come to realize that it is a waste of very precious energy to constantly seek the approval I will never receive.
I have my own ideas for my future, and at 51, I know my time is growing short. I want to write and publish 2 more books, I want to start a Gnostic circle, I want to have a house with a little land to grow my own produce. I want to live in a monastic community not tied to any church or temple.
I don’t want to crash through any glass ceiling. I don’t want to gain an obscene amount of wealth at the cost of my soul. I don’t want to lose sight of either my humanity or divinity.
