Protect Your Dreams

I am living proof of this firsthand, so I can only assume that the statement is true of others.

With pride, arrogance, or an ego, it’s very easy for the loveliest of us to become the vilest of creatures. Vices then result from virtues if appreciation is forgotten. True appreciation and humility is essential, not a twisted sense of entitlement and false expectations.

Impatience, and a passive attitude for righteousness can result in creating monsters from mages. . .

For example:

When Frankenstein was created, did he ever ponder why his maker had given such a form to him?

When beauty exceeds to the point of becoming banal, then what is left?

When white lies leave behind a pool of black sludge that one drowns in, then who is really protected?

The repulsive monster possesses traits that others seek to emulate, but it is an illusion, the form of the creature does not determine its character. Character is determined from the inner world, the realm of the unseen, the NON-LOCAL, and the creatures that exist locally are a living manifestation of that.

When humans’ loveliness is laced and locked in limited belief systems, then the potential for the MONSTER to appear in a livid state is more common.

In order for humans to remain beautiful without being repulsive, they must keep their hearts open, be steadfast in their mission to become the strongest version of themselves, without using that power to strike others down.

Be a symbol to show others the way.

Sometimes this happens with silence.

Sometimes with swords. . .


“In nature a repulsive caterpillar turns into a lovely butterfly. But with human beings it is the other way around: a lovely butterfly turns into a repulsive caterpillar.”

Anton Chekov
