Weekend musings
Fantastic hike this weekend. Here's some thoughts that came of it.
The indomitable mayhemchaos said something along the lines of "That's why you have friends, to help keep you safe." This touched on my recent thoughts on the duality of existence, how one thing often contains its opposite. Saftey, containing danger in this case.
The question arose then, "Are your friends there to keep you safe, or to allow you to brave dangers that you could never approach before?" Do they provide the structure and support for you to risk your existence and identity? I think so, in a way. Of course, when I think of my friends, my number one friend dandyloo comes to mind. The thought of her steels my heart and enlarges my soul. She has challenged me like no other, and been my support for growth unimagined previously. I am more alive because of her, and by extension my other friends that love and support me. Thank you all.
