Nature versus Nurture
I grew up fascinated with dragons. It was a challenge to draw and it still is a challenge as I learned new details. Dragons are majestic. I think they represent me in a way because when I love to have something, I don't want it taken away. There is an adventure waiting and I got unfinished works to do. That video game idea for example. It contains creatures. But far from done. What's this got to do with spirituality?

I believe that mythical creatures do exist outside our realm. Either that or it is all figurative. Either way, things disappear for no reason at all only to turn up when we don't need it. There is the unexplainable. With God anything is possible though. So maybe after technology wears off heaven comes to Earth and magic starts. Divine powers at work. Mystery would only grow deeper.

There are miracles in my environment that has shaped my life. My foot got caught in a bike one time led to a clumsy me just wanting to avoid falling. It's a miracle no broken bones. Then, when moving, my car died and restarted despite lacking oil. Another miracle. Nothing lost. Then there's the time I had developed bronchitis after a cold which only ended after a trip to doctor and getting prescribed an effective solution. Only needed to go once. But that cough just didn't quit otherwise.

Dreams are just that- dreams. But since I grew up learning many things I grew more and more cautious. But there is such a thing as being too cautious. I could only hope to improve and one day be in a place I could live comfortably. It never hurts to dream big things but living comfortable at minimum wage is what I depend on doing.

Naturally I am happy and careful. Situations require me to be fast and accurate. I am rather clumsy with speech. It may take me a while but I am accurate. Typing is nearly well done as I learned how from school and kept it up despite being poor. I further enhanced this skill in college by taking Multimedia. Good editing skills if I could've afforded the program. Still, Flash is obsolete, but one of my favorites. I learned how to create a game.

Now I'm going for something stable, but I know what I could excel in. I just hope to be spiritually prepared for it and let it be the path God wants me to take. But I will consider doing something consistently under mom's permission.
