30 Days of Druidry Meme

 

As detailed here there are a few folks participating in this exercise. Theoretically the goal is to blog once a day every day on the topics and link the blog posts on the thread. Since we all know consistent posting is a challenge for me I'm going to state here and now that I may not be able to do all thirty days. Still, I am very much going to try. So, here is the list of memes as revised by AlisonLeighLilly on the board:

30. Advice to the Seeker 

Now, a lot of these topics are ones that I am just now dipping my toes into. I don't plan to skip them altogether but I do suspect/expect that whatever I do post will be radically revised in future, as it should be. After all what is the point of working the path and the ideals if they are stagnant from day one? I think I would weep if I looked back at me now in a year and see the exact same person with the exact same opinions and the exact same views. What a total waste of time and effort that would be!
