I originally wrote this in January of 2021. I posted it on my Patreon (check it out with the link below) and I’m cross posting here for #throwbackthursday!
There be dragons.
I used to think of mythical beasts and fantastical creatures.
Now, more than ever I realize dragons are people that care too much.
They love too much.
They hoard the things that matter.
Photographs, books, and baby giggles are gold when all other things fade to dust.
For me, I would burn the world for those I care about. But for those I love?
I would obliterate it.
