I honor you this day, and I honor every bit of you that resides in me.  I’m grateful for the strong German heritage you've provided. I offer you my undying love, honor, respect, and gratitude.

 Armanen Rune: Eh: 
Havamal 161.
A seventeenth I know, through a wise law
To join two lives in love;
And everyone is willing, no virginal woman
Will leave me lightly after this.
 
Warns against frivolous, transient love affairs, the legal bond between man and woman, lasting love, two bound together by the primal law of life, unification, sanctity of marriage, the cross of wedlock, fulfillment, maintaining strict morals within the bonds of marriage, love, duality, bound by primal law, love, trust and marriage. Soul-mates, wedding, partnership, permanent bond, binding decision, hope, duration, horse, permanence and marriage as a law, unity of ego and you, sister souls, soul-love, God-Man-Woman, ideal love, twin souls, two made one, success, increase.
“Marriage is the raw-root of the Aryans” (List, 63).

Interpretation: Weakness (Thurisaz) leading to a marriage (Eh)?????????????????????????

Outcome: goddamn time change

1st breakfast; multi-grain cereal with raisins added
<> 
Toby and I out for a 30min walk.  I noticed the pup who is always tethered to a porch was out of food.  I came back with a butt-load of kibble and a gallon of water in case he/she needed it, which turned out probably so because his/her water bucket was less than half-full.  He/she may have had trouble getting to it.  He/she dove into my offering of kibble.  I’m going to once again call animal control, this will be the third time, for a welfare check.  I better get a quick response this time, or I’ll take it to a higher level.
*I don’t worry about the pit-bull so much anymore.  I think he/she is well cared-for.

 God/dess Meditation: Paltar, you're the blameless god, gloriously shining god, rising god, restoration god, husband to the faithful Nanda, beloved son of Wotan and Frija.  Just as you restore Mittigart after Godotuom, restore us after we experience our own Godotuoms of life.  Let your goodness and your reconciliation smooth our paths on Earth. When our days here are over, light up death’s darkness with the promise of rebirth. Help is to avoid evil, and seek the good. Inspired by your example, we will keep our reputations spotless that our lives be proclaimed a victory of the Spirit, and our leaving his life a tragedy. WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HEIL, PALTAR, as we honor the Paltar that resides in us all!
