		<description><![CDATA[Boundaries blurred
Whispers heard
Be mindful of your spoken word
Let not intention be recanted
From seeds once planted
Requests be granted
Equals only be enticed
Review the guest list once or twice
Then light the candles
And fire up the blender
&#8216;Tis no better night for wishes rendered!

		<description><![CDATA[Armed with bullet points on an index card, even a timid mind can express intention clearly.
Well, most of the time.
I&#8217;ve had my moments.  Predetermined lines of reason fly out the window if nervous energy makes an untimely entrance.  With a potential to spread like wildfire, unchecked emotions will overpower a well-rehearsed delivery before a witch [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Picky, picky&#8230;
That&#8217;s it.
This is the only guideline a modern witch will ever need to fulfill her purpose.
And what is her purpose?
That&#8217;s easy.  Her only purpose is to be absolutely content with today and completely enthusiastic about tomorrow.
Somewhere, deep within us, we know that this basic element of overall satisfaction is all we need to continue [...]]]></description>

I sure do.
Until recently, I never really understood how to do this.  Although being alone seemed intriguing, it also sounded rather boring.  Now that I have spent fifty-one years on the planet, being content with my own thoughts is finally getting easier.  This is an improvement from the [...]]]></description>

There has not been one day since he died that I don&#8217;t remember him.
The sadness of his loss is slowly being replaced with the simple joy I feel to have known him.  I&#8217;ve been experiencing some recent moments of gentle guidance from none other than the legend himself.  He still has me [...]]]></description>
