Laugh If You Want

[perzephone]

What if the only reason I'm here is to teach someone to not be afraid?

I Believe...

The Very Important Things:

I believe in the power of a blue feather.

I believe in the Velveteen Rabbit. Isn't that what we all really want? To be real?

I believe in the hero's journey.

I believe in the Oestre Bunny and Santa Claus, even if it is just Ol' One Eye in a padded red robe.

I believe that someone should still make sure the Sun comes up in the morning and Spring comes 'round every year. Someone needs to set Helios' alarm clock and send Persephone Her limo on time.
