My heart goes out to those in Oklahoma who have been affected by the tornados that have wrecked havoc on the region. I know that many lives were lost and much property was damaged. I hope that you all know that we are all keeping you in our thoughts and prayers.
May those that have been displaced find new homes and jobs to make the recovery easier. May the friends that have been lost be never forgotten. May new friendships be built to help fill the voids left by those that were lost. May you find comfort in the arms of someone who cares. May you learn to love and support each other during this time of turmoil to help recover from this disaster, as those of us who care for you continue to surround you with love. May you warm your heart, thoughts, and soul by once again finding your center.

I submitted my Dedicant Path on Friday and was pleasantly surprised when I got an email this morning already with my first review. Here is my feedback from the reviewer:
I have reviewed your Dedicant's Path submission and have the following comments. Amber, over-all a very nice submission. There are only few changes needed Virtues: Please include either a dictionary definition or the ADF definition along with your own thoughts please High Days: Passes Book Reviews: Passes - very, very nice, thank you Home Shrine: Passes Two Powers: Passes Mental Discipline: Passes Nature Efforts: Passes High Day Rituals: Passes, but if you also listed the omens (if you still have them) that would be grand Three Kindred: Would you also please detail what they mean in ADF in general? Hearth Culture: Passes Dedicant Oath: Passes ------------------------------------------------------------------- So I've spent this morning working on the few changes that I had to make, which really are not that bad. It was way less additional work than I had prepared myself for, which was awesome! It has officially been re-submitted, so we'll what happens from there. Hopefully I will soon be able to share that I am officially done with the Dedicant Path and can move forward from there. On a secondary note, my reviewer is Drum, the Vice Arch Druid from ADF. I had the pleasure of meeting him in Topeka earlier this year and he is an incredible man. I truly believe that he is the reason that I have finally finished the Dedicant Path. Speaking with him makes a person feel like they are important and special. He made me feel like he truly cared about my success and believed in my ability to complete the Path. Last thing I wanted to do was to disappoint him. I'm thrilled and nervous as hell to have him as my reviewer. I was shocked and so pleased at the same time. Sometimes things really do happen for a reason. With the end of my Dedicant Program finally in site, I find myself wondering "What's next?" Within ADF, the DP is quite literally the gateway to all other study programs. You are suddenly able to do the Guild Study Programs, as well as the Generalist Study Program, the Initiate Study Program, and the Clergy Training Program. I have honestly never thought beyond the Dedicant Path to decide what I wanted to do beyond it. Maybe that is odd, but it's the truth. I know the Initiate Program could be very interesting...and the Generalist Study tends to help out with a lot of the Guild Study Programs. Maybe I'll do the Brewers Guild stuff....or do I want to apply for the Clergy Training Program? It's hard to tell.
I think I will probably start with the Initiate Program and see what happens from there. Some of the Guild Programs seem fun so we'll see what happens. Overall, I'm just stoked to finally be considering something other than the DP! |
