Was there ever a time on your journey that you realized that the newness had worn off and if you were going to be able to continue your path it was all up to you?
For instance I have seen newbies post in threads (mainly elsewhere) and they are all excited that their lives are going to be 'magickal' and exciting from now on because of their newfound path. Some of these people are teens, some older than me, so that doesn't seem to make a difference. I remember when I decided to walk the path I'm on. I think I expected the 'magic' and everything to be there just because I'd chosen the path. It took me a while before reality set in and I realized that any magicalness was only there because I made it happen and when I didn't, it wasn't (this was a few years ago for me).
So it got me wondering if this was a normal type of progression from newbie to really (so to speak). Sort of a 'life is what you make of it' or even a 'life is what happens to you while you're making other plans' - if you're not careful to pay attention, that is. ...Thoughts?
