I am one who wholeheartedly believes in showing kindness, thankfulness and gratitude.
But, there are days I need to be more, much more, I need to be a dragon: fierce, relentless, strong, powerful, self-reliant, who is able to burn a path for myself to tread.
How else am I to live ill, every – single – day, and still go on!?
Today I choose to be the dragon!
Taking flight soar as I please
Shooting fire below
To make my path more at ease

Yes, I love this. How to use positive aggression to move forward, burning through obstacles and riding the beast with a firm hand, or flying as the wise and wily powerful beast wherever you wish to go. I salute the dragon that you are.

We need this. We need this because we go out too many times not to lose. We don’t go out to win. Being a dragon is about winning. It’s conquering our foes be it our fear or anger management. The smallness of my pride and anger makes me a gecko (small lizard), but the confidence God puts into me makes me invincible. I can tell you choose the later. Grace and peace dear one.
