My Sanctuary
Rocks, candles, etc.
I love my bathtub: candles, crystals, incense and magical things fill my space
There’s a glass vase with sand and shells from my dad’s last sandcastle, the one I built around his ashes to give him back to the ocean.
Obelisks stand tall in my windowsill.
A fairy observes a cascading fountain
A Tibetan healing bowl turns my pained strikes into healing tones of harmony.
A goddess observes the sanctuary I created for myself.
The moon, ever changing, rests between candles.
My Master’s degree in English literature hangs where I can see it while I recline under more moons than two.
Geology was my lab science in undergrad; my rocks ground me.
I love nothing better than a rainy day in my cauldron, except perhaps a starry moonlit night.
But something even better happened today:
About the Creator

I'm a weirdo nerd who’s extremely subversive. I like rocks, incense, and all kinds of witchy stuff. Intrusive rhyme bothers me.
I’m known as Dena Brown to the revenuers and pollsters.

Letter to my Daughter
You have a choice to make here: are you going to continue the cycle, or are you going to break it? Keeping your son away from me hurts him; there’s no question about that. I thought you were being hurt, and I was trying to protect you, not punish anyone when I kept your grandfather away from you. I have said that I was wrong and I am sorry, but there was never any malice involved.

Wild Card Weekend Recap: What Happens Now?
I think I figured out why I love Wild Card Weekend so much. It's because it's the first playoff anything of the calendar year. The NFL season starts in the fall, and once upon a time, the champion was crowned either on or slightly before New Year's. The evolution of the NFL schedule has resulted in the playoffs starting just into the New Year, and currently, the final week of the season falls on the first weekend of the New Year, with Wild Card Weekend coming a week after that. So yes, chronologically, the NFL's Wild Card Weekend serves as the first playoff anything of the calendar year.

Very nice sanctuary. I like the “metal singing bowls.” Many times I have fun with them and also feel calm.
Beautiful!
What a lovely space! I used to have crystals with my plants in my window, your photos reminded me of that, but yours is way cooler.
