The Reality of Dragons

2024.07.11

Good morning that wonderful way.

The question, so rarely, finds me: What to write?

The answer is always the same.
The next word.
The. Next. Word.

Thinking on the body.

Thinking on bodies.

Thinking on evil and what that means.

It's denial, a certain kind of forced moral blinder on morality.

A willing turning away from the basic precepts of reality.

There's a certain way to be, a certain way to act.

It's inherent in all of us.

We don't need to know it.

We come preprogrammed.

It's in the DNA.

It's in our way.

It's why we laugh and cry at the same points in our stories.

It's why stories work.

Period.

There is a right and a wrong way to live.

Villains exist.
Heroes, too.
Which one are you?

We say we're the hero of our own life.

This is true.

Winning is how well we use the inherent ways to see our dreams fulfilled.

We trust that a priori knowledge, stay focused on the manifestation of the dream and take the next step.

There's no such thing as faith, only acceptance.

Life has to matter.

And so, it does.

We wouldn't have reason if there were no reason for it.

Life is not arbitrary because life cannot be arbitrary without our choice that it is.

There can be no question of The Divine's existence without questioning The Divine's existence.

And, so, The Divine must exist in order to question it.

There's no way to question the reality of Heaven without Heaven.

Myths exist, too.

Each and every one of our stories is real.

What do you mean?

I mean that dragons and magic do exist in stories, and as stories exist so do magic and dragons.

Because a thing is a shared dream of a dream doesn't preclude it from being real.

It is part of the shared dream of ourselves, and so it is a part of our shared dream.

Also known as: Reality.

We can't touch patience, happiness, sadness, but we all agree they're here.

Shared experiences of the story of us, our story shared.

Accept the reality of dragons and have a better day.
