hm...i was just thinking (while cooking something to eat) about the contents of the "How did you find your Patron/Matron?" thread again...

cause my life seems to be taking me away from things i've been used to for so long...but not deep down. my feelings still seem the same. but i never have time or something else pops up that i want to do...

but anyway...i was thinking about how i can't ground...i don't know who my spirit guides are. I don't know what deities i belong to...then the thought just came to me that...maybe the reason the woman didn't say anything to me was she feels i'm not ready? that she only showed herself to get across to me that, yes she's there & she's watching over me.

so that lead me to thinking maybe i'm not meant to know too much yet? maybe they want me to learn to live & stop relying on others for so much help...like...i have to...prepare myself? or i dunno...maybe i can't handle what they have to teach me till i teach myself about living first?

I've always lived in other people's shadows. learned life lessons by others mistakes. i've never really lived my own life up until recently...& what i've done so far isn't much. i think that's what they mean. i don't have my own experiences...i've always learned from others &/or out of books...

am i reading this wrong? or is there solidity in these ramblings?

First of all, Everyone finds their deities when they are "ready". Don't be in a rush to find them. They will come to you when they think its time. That goes the same with the spirit guides. The grounding could be due to you not being to relax, or it could be that your scared of what you may encounter, when you open yourself up to the unknown. Just learn to relax first. I do have some exercies that just have you relax.

The lack of experinces, could be due to lack of time also. You haven't had time for yourself. You always are doing stuff for your sister or parents.

not really...the lack of experience dates back to childhood...i've always watched other people & never did stuff myself. i stayed inside & wasted my childhood. but i'm not talking about me giving up on religion...just that...i dunno >< i just have the thought that i'm meant to improve my physical (not image) self...before i'm ready to move on to my metaphysical self...

When I read your first post I got an image of my High Priestess in my Mystic Dreamer deck...(sorry I couldn't find the image for you sad )

But basically..."pay no attention to the man behind the curtain." You're trying to know too much too soon. You're starting to grow--and trying to speed it up will slow you down. Just relax and enjoy the ride. Take a walk outside, the gods will bless you. Be glad you're alive. Try new things--new activities, new foods...you get the idea. Don't worry. It'll come wink
