Dear Robin:

It is exciting: Bibiliotherapy and Art Therapy, both, bibilio-art therapy perhaps?

I like your last post, combine all your gifts. And I like you being excited over valuing your creativity.

The Never Ending Story- the swamps of sadness, was it? The deserts of depression.. I am not sure. To me that movie meant a lot: it is a representation of what I call my Healing Path, starting with the quest to find a cure for the Empress, it being a child chosen as the warrior, Atreyu, taking no weapons, surviving depression (the death of his horse), hardships, the indifference and pessimism of the Morla, the ancient turtle (“I am allergic to… youth”), GMork, who works for The Nothing that takes over people who lose their dreams and hopes, so to control people.. (makes me think, were you married to a Gmork who “brought out the worst in me, and encouraged me to be weak so he could be in control”), and so much more. Eventually all of Fantasia was gone except for one grain of sand.

I am thinking your awakening, your excitement is that one grain of sand that is going to make Fantasia come alive in all its magnificence. I hope so.
