What's Mama Dee's Wisdom?

To answer the question "What is Mama Dee's Wisdom" we need to first ask who is Mama Dee.

Well, I am Mama Dee.  I've lived about 4 lives in this one particular body, and I think I must be part cat because I feel like I've still got some life left in me.  Having lived and observed as I have, I have learned a lot of things about the nature of life.  Things haven't been easy, but if they had been I wouldn't have learned what I have.

My tapestry includes Neuro-divergence, 3 marriages with 1 ending in my spouse going to jail, having and then losing 3 kids, then gaining 3 more with my third, (and I am hoping final) marriage.  I have known the grief of losing children, but having them very much alive living elsewhere.  I have struggled with various mental issues from anxiety, to depression to post-partum paranoia, an attachment disorder, hypo-mania and trying to figure out how to make my demons play well with others... Add in my IQ and my abnormally decent memory...  As I said, there's a lot of information up here in the think-meat.
 
My wisdoms may be as profound as a deep mystical truth about humanity, or as simple as a warning to not put your hand in a blender while it is in operation.  It's hard to know with me.  I am usually unsure what I am writing about until finger hits key and even then, not always. 
My muse comes to me in the form of intuition.  When I talk about something, I do not usually have a particular situation in mind, I wait for my muse to tell me what needs to be heard, then I say it, for boon or for bane.

A Decade in Rewind: 2010-2020.

It was brought to my attention a few weeks back that, we are indeed at the end of another decade.  These memes and blog posts remind us to pause, and take stock of the time we have spent, and what we have done. This decade has been, by far, the most eventful of my life.  For the sake of this writing, I will break it down into bullet points, which have links.  The links can be followed to a blog post from that year. Now, if you are seeing this, it's safe to assume you either know me personally, know of me personally, are one of my offspring, or know me through my work in the Pagan Community.

Exploration into the labyrinth

Today we are heading to the lavender labyrinth in Shelby, Michigan. I was previously unaware of the powers of the labyrinth and it's ability to put one in a trance-like state, and moreover why that could be useful.  I wasn't taking this trip for me, per se, but for the sisters that I have been working with in the Red Tent group that I am apart of.  Slowly but surely one by one had to drop off due to lack of spoons, that is, the need for self care due to illness- both visable and invisible.  So our 3 car caravan has dropped to one car. Things are as they are.  The plans for the day were altered, but only slightly.  My husband, daughter and I headed out at about 11:30 to make the long drive.  Our journey will take us today to the shores of Lake Michigan. I have a great resonace with the Great Lakes, and as a child in Michigan, always have.  When I was very small, my family lived in a small town just off of Lake Superior.  The lake was so large t...
