Oh, my! It's been a while since I've updated this journal, but it was all for a good cause, and such wonderful things really have been happening around the city as of late. Everything feels singed with magic, and though some of it has been quite frightening, too, I can't help but love this mysterious sensation surrounding the city.
I've been really busy looking for a new job, but so far haven't had any luck. The library had too many staff on payroll, and since I was the newest addition to the building, they decided it would be best to let me go. (I'm not too terribly offended, just a little worried for both our sakes. I'm sure I can find work somewhere else, but I hope the library doesn't close! I still go there to read up as much as I can. Mom always says a well-educated mind is a well-rounded mind.)
Speaking of reading up, I found an article about this lovely Norse God called Baldur. (Or is it 'Baldr'? There were a few different ways to spell it...) Mom would have liked him - he was a God of Peace! How lovely! - but his story is kind of sad. I don't understand why he had to die, because everyone loved him. But I suppose he didn't really die. Just relocated.
So,
Praise be to Baldr,
God of Peace,
and Light,
and Beauty.
May your life shine through
to all the Earth,
and your loveliness
shield you from the hardships
of this world. |
