The Proper Use And Care of a Soul

Every woman is a Goddess.  Every man is a God.  And far too often, we forget that very important piece of information.  Too often, we lose sight of the powerful beings in the room with us, sitting in the chair across from us, or just sharing our space. We forget. We lose sight of the fact that these individuals should be revered and honored with kindness and love. They should have adoration rained down upon them in a manner befitting a Celestial being.  They deserve to be respected for who they are and what they bring into our lives.  But many times we find ourselves without the proper respect for such a deity. And that is when we miss something worth paying attention to. 

So my advice to all of you out there is to reach out your hand, and place it lovingly over the hand of the Divine Being beside you.  Take that flesh into your own, and caress it, stroke it, demonstrate that you feel for them the way they deserve. Let them believe that you do, as only a lover can. Divinity deserves attention, and care, and open displays of affection.  So be attentive and caring to that wonder in your life before you wake up one day and regret your inattentiveness.

You will miss them when they are gone.


So today, right now, take the time to see the wonder inside your partner. Revel in their differences, and rejoice in their presence. Celebrate each day you have with them in a way that is meaningful and pleasurable, and brings you BOTH (or as many of you are involved...) happiness and laughter.  See the beauty that lies behind those eyes, and sing praises about them.  Love that Goddess, Love that God.  Revere them, and show them off to the world.  Love them and hold them close, but hold them close with an open hand, not possessively, but gently and with respect.  Do this, and you never know how your inner Divinity will reward you.

As is stated in Doreen Valiente's Charge of the Star Goddess, "All acts of love and pleasure are My rituals".  Be mindful of that and you might be a more worthy worshipper.
