Stress, stress, stress, then...

NOTHING.

Isn't that always the way?  Well, no, it's not, but when it is you sort of look around and wonder what happened that everything is ok now.

Large stresses and small stresses alike, it's never a good time when something turns and stares at you with an accusing eye.  Be it your all together too low bank account or a looming issue that you're dreading dealing with, that focus drills into you, worming its way into your very soul.  It drains you until you have nothing left to fight it.

We've all been there.  We all know that feeling.

Then it breaks, like a popped balloon, and you're left standing there feeling lighter than air.  Your soul relaxes (you can feel it) and the sun is a little brighter.

Peace.

Having just gone through the amazing time that was Beltane, and carrying a little of that bonfire with us still, I think about the stresses that I carried with me into that morning ceremony on Friday, and through the rest of the weekend, and I wonder how that affected the ceremony as a whole.

The gods know we bring some of the pressures of life with us into the circle, no matter how much we try to relax before hand.   They know, and they understand, and we deal with it as best we can.


So in the coming week, remember your stresses aren't forever, and know the gods understand.
