Thanks Tomi. That's a very kind compliment
It occured to me today my thought was not yet complete. I think when we find ourselves in that crossroads of creation, as well as changing ourselves, the opportunity exists to change our environment. For example, a victim of child abuse might become a children's advocate, working to heal him/her self, heal a child, and heal society simultaneously. We can look at the source of our depressive causes and work in that specific area to make changes in our culture that might improve the quality of life for ourselves and future generations. This is the dragon's redemption. The purpose of the dragon is fullfilled.
