What a great L&L! The first of the years. I truly love good conversation with Heathen folk .. I always learn sooo much! We started 'Myths and Symbols' .. it will be our Lore focus for the year. Great chatter, excellent food, endless bottles of mead.

Heimat Hof extends good cheer to our kin & kith. May your right hand always be stretched out in kinship, never in want!

Thew is situational: circumstances can and do dictate how we, like our ancestors, deal with each individual event. Heathenry is a human endeavor, so prone to all the failings, fragilities, and frailties of man. Evenso, the Heathen trusts to the overarching thew .. that Great Thew of Hope.
