A Wandering Fox

Back in 2014, Hestia called me one of Her Hearth Keepers. Basically, my duty was to care for the Hearth—my home, family, and self. A title that I humbly embraced. A few years later, the Vestals began training me to be one of them. Not caring that I wasn’t a virgin and was married with children. I served the Hearth Mothers and cared for my home and family. I also served my community as a Home Cleanser, Astral Nasty Banisher, and a Home Blesser. I had learned over the years, that I was also a Home Healer. We didn’t live in any one place for very long for a little while. While we lived in various places, I was often met by pissed off spirits who also lived in those spaces. As a Spirit Worker and a Hearth Keeper, I worked to soothe those entities, and show them that not all humans are dicks. I also helped the once human spirits, too. I cleansed those homes and helped the spirits understand the residents a little better. I healed and then moved on to the next place. So the Vesta...

You know what I don't like about the DP essays?  How some of the criteria is straight forward and some of it is cryptic.  Like, I had my last essay proof read and it checked all the boxes for the criteria.  But then the Reviewer said that a lot of students fail it the first time because what they actually want is xyz. THEN SAY THAT THE FIRST TIME!    If a lot of people are failing it the first time, that means whoever's in charge of writing this shit up needs to go back and edit the criteria.  It's not rocket science.  Just be straight forward.  What is it you want us to write about?  Explain it plain enough for those of us who're new and veterans.  Explain it plain enough that those of us who're neuro divergent and typical can easily understand it.   If many students fail this essay their first time, EDIT.  Make it easier to understand.   It's not that difficult.  I don't get why it hasn't been revised ye...

Dang yall I'm on a roll with these essays !  I passed the ADF High Days Essay yesterday and I just turned in Essay 6: Mental Discipline.  Let's go!  I wrote Essay 6 on the Liminal Space between Mental Discipline and Neurodivergencies, specifically ADHD.  I used an old journal entry from 2021 and broke it up and put it in wherever to represented ADHD.  I just hope it's not too artsy fartsy. Originally I was going to write it about the Mental Discipline needed for learning Shapeshifting, but true to its nature, the essay changed towards the end, focusing more on ADHD, so I deleted a bunch and started over.  I like it better, I just hope the Reviewer does, too, and that it fits the criteria. The plan was to get Essay 7 done, but you know how inspiration works--it just struck me out of nowhere last night. Let's keep that inspiration rolling!  I'd love to be done with the DP by July.
