Yes, I tend to revert to my musical theater days when I haven't had much sleep.
Our newly formed Kindred had its first ritual, Valborg, the spring celebration. We invited some of the members of a local Druid Grove we are considering Hearthkinning with, and it was a good ritual and a pleasant evening. Shawn and I did manage to make it to the dawn ritual as well.
It has been a long time (Close to 10 years.) since I have had to deal with people in more than a very limited social setting. I do enjoy social gatherings, but I try really hard to not get sucked into people's lives and drama, because it saps what limited energy I have that I really need to other things. Shawn is keen on the hearthkin thing, but after the events of the last couple of weeks, I am thinking that for me, this is might not be such a good idea. There has been already some fairly major drama that I have been sucked into, and I know that becoming the clan matriarch to a bunch of baby Pagans yet again means that I must be involved in their personal lives to an extent that I am not sure I am willing to take on at this time, not to mention the inevitable politics that arise in any group of people that numbers more than two.
Time to withdraw for a time and think on things.
Exactly why I discovered my personal energy has more power than when it is diluted in a group. Very cool as in my professional life its opposite, I am more powerful with othersthen.

ReplyDeleteTough call, though... because a Dragon is sometimes just what people need to cut through their BS. Just make sure they all know that if they bring things to you that don't need your wisdom, you might roar ;)
ReplyDeleteThey found that out the hard way this weekend. ;)
