CRUCIBLE

CRUCIBLE

Strong things don’t take shape in comfortable conditions. Early civilizational development is measured according to how much we could turn up the heat–the progression from the Stone Age to the Bronze Age to the Iron Age. Progress does not come naturally; it is forged.


The same goes for people. Tough tasks create tough people. One of the most remarkable elements of human anatomy is that change–improvement–is triggered by going harder than your body wants to. That’s why it’s so important to challenge yourself every day, physically and otherwise. Strong people aren’t forged on the couch.

DRAGON

DRAGON

The world is divided when it comes to dragons. In Eastern cultures, dragons are mystical–divine, even. They are usually positive creatures which exist between us and the realm of the gods, or even as representations of the divine on Earth. They symbolize power and control over Earthly forces like water and the weather.


In the West, dragons are monsters. Firebreathing reptiles which descend upon a town to wreak havoc and maybe find their next meal. They’re a fight, a trial, a challenge to be met.


Ultimately, we’ll say: slay your dragon. But don’t forget the gift that every challenge is.
