Monday at the Cave: Not Necessarily Manic

Sooooo... tried to post this several times this morning, mid-day and afternoon... and now, at long last, my internet thingy is working... well, not mine, per say. The one at the Laundry on the Corner. Eh, whatever works, right? Enjoy my random Monday Musings.

“Perhaps all the dragons in our lives are princesses who are only waiting to see us act, just once, with beauty and courage. Perhaps everything that frightens us is, in its deepest essence, something helpless that wants our love.”

― Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet
********************************

There's a wealth of things to be seen and done in this old world. Don't you ever let fear or hatred stop you from seeing and/or doing the ones that bring you joy. Don't you dare. You just go find that thing that makes your heart feel alive, and makes your soul writhe with ecstasy... and once you find it, you grab ahold of it with both hands, baby, yeah, and wrap your legs around it too. Hold on tight, tighter, tightest, and well, just be you. Be you with beauty of spirit and courage of mind and heart. Then, you get to rescue the dragon, and be the savior of worlds, cause you just saved yourself, your finest, best self. 

I'll see y'all later. I'm off to see a man about a dragon.
