Be Well, Matt Dillahunty

Back with the UUs...probably?

Back with the UUs…probably?

So I went to church today. No, my faith didn’t change, but my interpretation of it did somewhat.

Longtime readers of this blog – all three of you 🙂 – will remember that I left the Unitarian Universalist Church in Tallahassee because they seemed overfond of the word “blessed” for my taste. I wasn’t convinced that my faith, Kemeticism, really involved that particular word. It sounded too Christian…

A dose of realism for Earth Day

A dose of realism for Earth Day

Hi, guys. I had given some thought to a post talking about Geb, the earth god, and Ma’at on Earth Day – it does happen to be the New Moon today, and I had promised to carry on the “Making Ma’at” tradition into this year, so I was going to do rite, and maybe post about it…and then something happened, something that I’m not ready to write about specifically. So let me just post a poem of mine from…

Reflections on the Unyear and Wep Ronpet 2022

Reflections on the Unyear and Wep Ronpet 2022

It’s definitely been an Unyear. An image of clay pots. Source: unknown. This Unyear has been a little weird, but I guess a lot of them have for me. On July 20, I found out that I had been exposed to COVID so I got tested. Well, the COVID part of the test wasn’t actually run so I had to get retested, and eventually the results came back negative. I was also negative for RSV and both flu A and B,…

Two anniversaries

I didn’t expect them to be back to back. My shrine as it would have looked on January 20, 2024, when I was celebrating the anniversary of my encounter with Sekhmet. My shrine as it would have looked on January 23, 2024, when I was celebrating the 18th anniversary of my conversion to Kemeticism. January is a big month for me. I had my long, dark night of the soul, which resulted in Aset, Hathor…

Getting over guilt

Image by Pexels from Pixabay. Enhancement by me in Luminar 4 and Paint Shop Pro 7. I’ve had a rough time with this one lately. Anyone else? I don’t know if it’s the “obsessive thoughts” part of obsessive-compulsive disorder or the fact that I’m still kind of a recovering Catholic, even though I’ve partly returned to that faith, but either way, I am just haunted by guilt. Maybe the word…

A prayer to Aset in the Unyear 2020

A prayer to Aset in the Unyear 2020

In my locality, the Unyear started on Saturday, but I have been singularly unmotivated this year to do anything for it. I did rite on Wesir’s Day (Saturday) and that’s about it. But I did find the energy to write this prayer to my patron, on Her birthday.

A Kemetic and an atheist mourned a Catholic...

A Kemetic and an atheist mourned a Catholic…

Sounds like the setup to a bad joke, doesn’t it? “A Kemetic, an atheist and a Catholic walked into a bar…” (Even my saying that is a bad cliché. But I couldn’t resist, sorry.) Robert Pare, Jr. My dad. My dad died on July 27. He was a devout Catholic. The funeral was on August 5. It’s been rough. Losing my mother last year, only 14 months earlier, and now losing my father…yeah, it’s not been…

Liz needs help

My name is Ina and I have a little cat who's name is Liz. She was a stray cat I found on the street. I was so sorry for the poor little one because she was so small and definitely abused.

At first she was extremely shy and afraid but despite everything she kept following me. So I just had to take her with me. I had to bring her to the veterinary to check her. They told me she was in a bad condition. For example her ribs were in a bad condition (seems like people kicked her....), she missed two teeths, her kidneys don't work normal and seems like she doesn't hear very good (they kept pulling things out of her ears like dirt or sth like it, it wasn't recognizable).

I got her vaccinated and treated but she still has a lot of problems. The good thing is that I found a good vet who is willing to help her but despite everything she has to undergo surgery. He offered to let me pay less than normal but it will still cost 800€. For me that's still too much (normally it would cost over 2000€).

if you are wondering I go to work but I don't earn enough to collect money for her. It is enough for me and her for everyday living but that's it. Also I had a rough past too. My parents were both alcoholics and did drugs. They abused me, beat me up daily sometimes, yelled at me, told me how worthless I am and much more. But here I am now, alone without family, no friends but I have my little Liz. Believe me at the moment I do everything for her. I don't care about my situation, her life is more important. Also I am allergic to cats, I'm sneezing the whole day but like I said, she is more important than everything.

So I here I am, begging other people for donations for her cause I'm too desperate to think of anything elese. I'd be more then grateful if there are people who are willing to help my lovely kittie.

Thanks from the bottom of my heart to everyone!!!!!

Please reblog this post even that would be a massive help.
