We often forget what we are made of, when faced with our oppressors. It’s like that little spark of bravery in us and the truth of our own identity have completely vanished, to make room for fear…the most irrational feeling of all!
I looked back a few times within the past couple of weeks….my fear running me into the ground, my mind working over time trying to find solution to unsolvable problems… and then it stopped!.. I let the words out, and stopped. The sound of my own decision hit me…I said it! It’s not worth it! I love my job, I am so good at it, I will stop at nothing to be even greater…well maybe I will stop at some things…apparently I do… I drew the line and called in the big guns… Now I do my homework and play nice with the other kids…
But the word is out there. I put it out…and there is no going back…there’s only forward from here!
My kids are doing good, moving as fast as their little minds will take them…and boy are they fast! There is no better feeling than proving you were right…unfortunately, being right serve no purpose if the dragon is old, blind and prejudiced…but the kids have fun. And I stumbled onto a soul on the way. I don’t collect those, it would be wrong, at least in my way of seeing the world.. souls that are not attached must roam free, but this is a young soul in an old shell and the fun never stops! and neither does the roaming…and thus I have my share of fun, too…
My dragon was slain. My quest is complete. Now it’s time to have a little fun. And what a beautiful time to do that.. Have you seen the world? It rained with sunshine today…isn’t this magical…as always? Isn’t it worth slaying the dragon within? The world was pure today…the rain washed it all clean. Have a piece of it. It’s great for new beginnings. And for remembrance of who you really are. Thy shall cleanse thy soul…today. TODAY.
