Everyday ways to praise Hermes:
Thank a mail carrier for their service.
Messengers have always been important members of their communities, and present-day is no exception. Without them, civilization would grind to a standstill—no matter how automated things are.
Mail carriers are modern-day messengers, and they deserve more credit than they get.
They face dangerous weather, difficult driving conditions and physical exhaustion every single day. Last year around Rural Dionysia, I thanked a mail carrier for her service, and she got the BIGGEST smile on her face as she excitedly told me that this was her third day on the job and that I was the first person to thank her for her service so far.
Especially this time of year—thank your local mail carrier, and consider a holiday gift, whether it’s a tip or something else.

Οιοπολος - Oiopolos, Sheep-Tending/Shepherd
The shepherd plucked the lamb away from the den of wolves, walking away whilst the lamb bleated in fear, for it would be leaving the familiar coldness and lupine threats.
"Where are you taking me, shepherd?" The lamb asked.
"I'm taking you home." The shepherd replied, "I'm taking you away from that saddening situation."
"But what if I get lost?" The lamb asked, hesitation pulling at its downy wool.
"You were always lost, but it's alright." The young man smiled, as gentle as the breeze, "Now, you are found. That place wasn't home. It was only a house, see. There's a difference. You belong somewhere else. Not amongst snapping jaws and razor claws."
The lamb followed close, basking in his warmth. It's strange. Though the fear of the unknown lingers in its heart, the thrill of freedom is undeniable.
"Come with me, and have no worries." He held his hand out, a guide to an aimless wanderer, "Let me show you what it's like to go home, little lost lamb."
