feed the beast in me and give her room to roam

I don’t know what Tiisi had in mind when she put up this goal (which I promptly pinched) but for me it was about liberation.

All those little bits of me that I’ve kept squashed away and hidden for fear others may disapprove or dislike them, they are the things I’ve fed and given room. So ok, I’m what has been described as “a little bit weird”, but now I relish that. Who the hell wants to be the same as everyone else? I’m unique and glad to be. No more will I hide away because of fear or self doubt. The beast is truly out and roaming free, but maybe it’s not so much the beast as the beauty?

that I can let her off the leash then bring her to heel again :-) An uncontrollable beast wouldn’t be so pleasurable.

It brings to mind something my Mum used to say to us on the selected occasions when she’d take up verbal cudgels on our behalf; she’d turn to us with a wink and say, “Muzzle on, or muzzle off?”

If we said “Muzzle off”, she would proceed with a completely controlled, low voiced, logical and intellectually well thought out tongue lashing that left the person in no doubt that she’d just wiped the floor with them.

“Muzzle on” would promote pretty much the same response, except she’d allow them to walk away rather than crawl (metaphorically speaking, of course).

Big cheers for Mama Wolf, my role model ;-)

...and I liked it! Let’s just hope I’m just as successful at re-caging her when necessary!

Tiisi, I hope you don’t mind, but was bowled over by this goal and couldn’t resist!

Hopefully it will be a nice step forward from a couple of my other goals…..
