Today I really struggled with getting my “work” done. I was sitting at my desk trying hard to concentrate on important tasks related to my business and I just wanted to do something for the goddess in me. I stopped working on my business and spent some time working on this blog. I spent a few hours trying to get the “subscribe” feature working the way I want and changing a few other thing.
I felt a lot better-so much better that I even did some housework (always a sign of either happiness or insanity). I sometimes think that the only way that I can honor Goddess is by doing ritual or creating something unique with my hands and sometimes I’m just not in the mood for that! I feel guilty that I want to wait for motivation-but that is the way I am-I want to wait for motivation.
So-I feel a lot better and more optimistic and everything that HAD to get done today did.
I didn’t kill anyone in my family (including myself) and I even closed a deal and learned some new skills.
So-maybe ritual can be just doing something that I LIKE doing-not always what i SHOULD be doing. If ritual becomes another SHOULD then what good is it?
BTW-As a side note-I will say that part of what I did was watch the season finale of True Blood-love that show!
This past weekend we went on a tour of the Braves Club house-that’s the room where the guys all get changed and ready for games. Besides the yummy testosterone everywhere (not actual players-just energy!) I was particularly inspired by a message that one of the players, Yunel Escobar, had taped to his area.
“No tengo que demostrarle nada a nadie. Yo se quien soy YO”
I translated it as…
“I do not have to prove myself to anyone. I know who I am-Me.”
I would like to make Yunel an honorary Godess! YEAH!
I find it seriously annoying that the big message out there for feeling like a goddess is a razor for women. I do not even want to mention the name as I do not want to give them any accidental advertising. URGH! Also that the only show that teaches women how to love their bodies is hosted by a gay man! It’s a great show but please??? Can’t we do better than this?

I was nervous about life, the universe and everything last night so pulled an animal card for myself. I got the swan. I was thinking about the card and realized…
The ugly duckling did not become a swan-she was a swan all along and just didn’t realize it. I am already a swan. You are already a swan.
