I became an AODA member in 2010. My DIY way of being a Druid starts earlier, around 1980. Also back then, I earned an MDiv degree and was ordained. This was followed by an MA in Spanish. None of that took very well so naturally, I went into the I.T. profession. I joined a Unitarian Universalist (UU) congregation in 1984. These days, I’m learning and practicing mindful awareness and yoga poses as part of my Druid practice. I even play the bagpipes and I’m a Freemason.
