			<link>http://spiritlodge.yuku.com/topic/4768/t/New-to-Spiritlodge-kinda-.html</link>
			<description><![CDATA[ <p>Good evening everyone.
<br>
<br>
I am new as a member on spiritlodge.  However, I&#39;ve been visiting over the past two years as a non-member.  I have been receiving one-on-one teachings from
Cinnamon Moon who has patiently prodded me to become a member.  Here I am, finally.  I look forward to becoming familiar with all of you.  I also look forward
to reading, sharing, learning and growing too.  Bare with me as I learn how to navigate spiritlodge.  Cinnamon, thank you for encouraging me.... ]]></description>

<br>
<br>
I am just beginning my journey after many years of thinking it was not the right thing to do... but going around in circles can only be done so many times
before the time comes to find a new road.  I still am tentative that I am not insulting anyone, after telling people close to me that I was interested in
Native American cultures and them telling me that was not appropriate as I am not Native American... I am... ]]></description>

<br>
<br>
Nice to see everyone. I&#39;ve stoped by a few times in the last year. It&#39;s been a crazy world. I didn&#39;t think I would be one of the ones being
displace, Surprise! Divorced, but schooling for Massage. Living on my own after 24 years is a bit scary, but I&#39;ve been given so many signs and shown so
many beautiful reasons why. I took my first Balloon ride!!! Anyway, more as I stroll around the Lodge.

<br>
What a great place you all have here, I spent most of the day yesterday wandering the halls and looking at the wealth of knowledge on the shelves.

<br>
I&#39;m at the beginning, a little unsure as I take my first steps.
<br>
<br>
I&#39;ve been looking for a community like this for 3 yrs, but everything happens in it&#39;s own time I suppose.
