of solstice and oaths
well it is now officially winter solstice, and at midnight I made an oath by the mead, and while this oath was to beings not physically there they know and understand what was said and what was meant.
it seems fitting that an oath be made in the darkest part of the year, for it can only gain in light and meaning. I guess the loss of a dear and good person has helped me set my life in motion, and I cannot stop. it would be an injustice to her light soul if I was to stop, and it would be an injustice to myself.
I am a warrior who has been sitting on his ass for too too long, my sword arm has grown soft, my fist weak, my vision cloudy. This must end, I do noone myself included by staying this way.... A healer must heal, a warrior must fight, a priest must give comfort where they may....so to must I do all these things....
I would like to apologize to all those who I have let down, either through my actions or my inaction, though I cannot change the past I pray that I might make amends in the present. Though I may not be all things to all people I endevor to be if nothing else the best me that I can be. While I cannot let the regrets of the past be forgotten, I can endevore to live to the fullest and let there be as few future regrets as possible.
