At the suggestion of a few folks, I've taken a look at ADF's initiates program.

I said last night that I was planning to continue work on certain parts of the CTP, which were still relevant to me- all of these parts are included in the initiates program, and none of the parts that are not relevant. (And if anything were to change later, the work still applies to the CTP.)

I'm seriously considering that now. This is the subject matter that I am still sure that I need to be working on, and I still do like the way it's structured.

Yes, to a certain extent, I'm still hanging on to this. But I don't feel like I'm desperately clinging to something extraneous or detrimental because it's familiar. I'm reasonably sure that I'm looking at a vehicle for what I wanted/needed to be doing all along. There will always be imperfect details of course, but there are no whole sections that I'm looking at and going "WTF???" about.


This makes some sense.

And I can give up trying to read Walden. (Wait, what if this was all just a major ploy to quit trying to read that damned book????)

Sometimes, the Gods aren't entirely clear about what they want. Clergy is not quite the same as Initiate, that's certain. Sometimes, we tend to hold onto familiar things long past the time when we should let them go. Perhaps this is the time to let go, or even to do a deep meditation or heavy ritual, designed to seek out clearer information on the topic?

Walden is a drag. Only thing worse I've read was Mallory . . .

I hope you are well and everything is working out in that head o' yours.

Since you seem to dislike it so...well would you be willing to sell your copy of walden to me? Or at least let me borrow it? Let me know.

right on my mom got my yule book list too late so i didn't get any books off me list. I really wanted another copy of this. I know I am a half retarded monkey but Walden enthralled me as a youngster. I wanna see if that still stands.

LOL, I am surprised you are still reading it!

I would have given up ages ago.
