Expect a Quest

from The Everyday Human · host Eastin DeVerna

June: On Conflict and CourageGoFundMe for my wife's cancer fund:https://gofund.me/3682c6720June 14When danger comes your way, you won’t turn a blind eye and ignore it, you won’t wildly throw yourself at it with no plan—you’ll be prepared, you’ll see it for what it is, and you’ll face it. But you never have to go it alone. Link may have only had a sword to help him back in the 80s, but maybe the fact that it was gifted by a caring old man who worried over Link and his journey was enough to serve the purpose. Even if no one is with you physically, remember that people are rooting for you and guiding you. Carry them with you in your heart and mind.So take the sword willingly, but don’t look at it as a symbol of violence or aggression, rather as proof of your determination and defiance in the face of adversity.At some point on your journey, conflict lies ahead. Be sure of it. Expect it.Prepare for it.Reflection title: Expect a QuestCreative inspiration: The Old Man in a Cave, The Legend of Zelda (1986)Reflection Question: It’s dangerous to go alone! What sword are you taking with you? What danger did you face in the past that you wish you had been better prepared for?
