Creator, Creatress,
In this season of Darkness, let us remember the Light.
Please
Give me the strength to keep doing what I know to be right
And the persistence to make all that I do as good as I can make it to be
To keep rolling
To keep teaching
To keep learning
To stay true to myself
To be kind where it is needed, and exacting where that is needed, too
To be solemn sometimes, and to laugh at other times, but always to see the good
Let me be a grown-up, make proper decisions, make my own decisions, always to give myself permission to be myself
Let me be strong enough to take full responsibility for all that I do..
Don't let me defer, devolve, destroy, by making others responsible for me. I'm a grown-up, I can do these things without your approval. I don't need to pretend that anyone disparages me in order to remove my own responsibility..
I will no longer be your ogre, your queen, your mother, your owner, your critic, your decider, your designer.. Be yourself, that is all I ask.. I cannot tell you if you are bad or good, only if you are true.
Great Spirit, watch over us...
blessings, blessings, blessings
