A Divine thumping


In which I have an AHA! experience after only two years

Sometimes I am dense.

I just realized that this whole thing about the Journey and the Story and the differences between them is what I have been trying to say for almost two years now on this blog. I went back and reread some of my old entries, and sure enough, all the pieces were there.

Fluffy or non-fluffy, Pagan vs nonpagan, truth alive in a wash of nonsense, it is all one idea.

You can't blindly apply Story rules to a Journey. For a Sojourner, a book is nothing more than a starting place. For the Story people, The Book is The Way.

Each of the Blessed creates their own story by living their own journey. This is, pardon the expression, the fundamental truth. The people I trust, the people whose ideas resonate, and the people I want to hang out with when I am feeling sociable, they are the Sojourners and not the Book people.

The possibilities there intrigue me. I can feel the wheels spinning up to speed in my mind.

Well blazes, that probably just blew my chances for sex tonight. I am going to have the think about this and decide what next. Which means I am going to be a lousy conversationalist for a couple of days and I am probably going to have to postpone the date I had. I get hyper and I babble when I am excited by a new insight you see, just like now. There are very few I can talk this over with here, most of the people around me wouldn't care for the idea at all. They don't want to leave their stories, and they certainly are threatened by me making the distinction between Story and Journey. That bothers me more than delaying sex.

Which probably explains why I am writing this bit on a blog. There at least I know there are some people who know what on Earth I am talking about. Sort of puts a crimp in the idea I had for an entry today though. Maybe I will come up with another.

Obviously this is the realization that my Patrons wanted me to have. Now that I think about it, the first one in a series probably.

At least the 2x4 was padded this time.
