athenaion:

a friendly, gentle reminder, if you need it, or if you’re feeling unsure:

the gods want to be worshipped. they grant us many things and return, we open ourselves to them and give in return. the gods want to be worshipped. even the smallest offering, the smallest prayer, the smallest act of devotion, when given with reverence and love is just as good and deserving as a large and elaborate ritual. the gods want to be worshipped. they want to hear your voice singing them a hymn, reciting them a poem, saying a few words of gratitude and praise.

if you’re feeling unsure, unworthy, or undeserving, it’s alright. we all feel that way. but give anyway. even if it’s small, even if you don’t think it’s good enough, give. give with all your heart, with all of the love that brings you to them in the first place. 

all you need to do is the best you can. they will understand. they know what’s in your heart.

that’s enough. what you can do is enough. 

you are not unworthy.
