This Seeking my friend
is a tremendous task.
A raging fire it is.
Jump in if you wish to be baked.
For if you are merely curious
this fire will destroy you …

Review by: LucidPlay Publications on July 12, 2011 : (no rating)
The stories and poems here all have a purpose, that of the traditional fairy tale which helps us understand, and feel where our pain is, where we have gone astray, how to grow, and then take us through the journey to do so by following the characters, vicariously becoming the heroes and heroines we read about. One of the stories nearly made me cry, as I identified with the dragon, and knowing that the author must have too, feeling human vulnerability, as these aren't really stories about dragons as much as ourselves. This book isn't for everyone, for sure, but it has heart, has serious and meaningful goals, because the author actually cares about our transformation as we read along. That's obvious. And it feels good to be cared about by an author in that way, to read what she has written for us, to help us find our way through our emotions, our own unique path.
