I'm currently taking an eight-week course on Reconstruction as Methodology through the Academia Antinoi. Some of the classes have made me go "hm", one left me cold, but this week is about prayer and it just blew me away. One of my assignments is to write three prayers to a god. I chose Thor, who I love, and since the prayer had to request something, this is what I've written:
Asa-Thor,
You are the one who stands between the dwellers of Midgard and the powers of destruction.
You feed the people, bring rain to the thirsty fields, and gather the thralls to yourself.
You strike with skill and never cringe from battling chaos, even on the fatal day of Ragnarok.
SGT R(agnvaldsdottir) asks you for your guidance and example, for your courage, straightforwardness and fighting spirit. These are what I see in you, and I want to be a model of these myself.
As an NCO, may I show the same protectiveness to those in my care as you do to all who live in Midgard. Hail!
