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 look forward with eager anticipation to the great family reunion on the other side.  I offer you my undying love, honor, respect, and gratitude.

It was a good 6hrs at work.  With the few orders I turned-in, plus the hand-forming order that gave me 408min, I know I turned in 8+hrs for the 6hr shift.

Came home to celebrate Alfablot, and was able to sit right down at the table to honor my family tree.  I feel I successfully communicated my undying love, respect and gratitude toward them.

​Went outside to Agathagart to further honor the ancestors, this time, including the land wights. WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Will you look at that?!!!

THAT is a physical manifestation of the Spirit!

It's obvious all are pleased.

God/dess Meditation: Donar:
Donar, Son of Wodan and Erda, husband to Sibba with the Golden Hair, wielder of Malant and Great God of thunder, thunder forth in our lives. When we would hold back, encourage us to advance. When we would be weak, hearten us be strong. When we would shun life’s pleasures, inspire our appetites for that which is lusty and good. Excite our growth from strength to strength; teach us, elder brother, how to throw our own Hammer, and slay the giants who oppose our will. WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HEIL, DONAR, as we honor the Donar that resides in us all!
