Samhain and Celtic roots...

Well, it's the end of another harvest season. For me it's always marked by a sucessful candy hunt with the kids... Regarded as the Celtic new year I take this time to repay a visit to all that has happened to our family this year... A well balanced amount of good and bad... I won't go into details here as I have forgotten far more than I could possibly remember but just know that I feel at this point of my life that things are in balance and that all is going as it should...

My religious life has often been a source of shame for me, people make you feel as though what you believe is alright as long as it is in line with what they believe... well for me I am not any particular belief but I respect a great many number of thoughts towards our existance and our purpose. So when I celebrate the Celtic holiday of Samhain with my wife know that I respect her belief and also that of the Christian faith... I will favor none more than the other but feel there is a time and place for everything...

I'm tired and my words are scattered and unorganized tonight, soon I will gather up some shocking things to say that will amuse you in some way... Perhaps I'll post some of the photos I took of the 40 foot Monkey in my neighbor's yard...

For now I must go sort out the kids candy stash and make sure it's all safe for them to eat... Errr did I say them? I meant me!...

Cheers!
