Today in Greyskull




Today I assembled my Castle Greyskull. (Sometimes it is spelled with an "a", but I think the "e" looks better.) This is the castle from the 2004 Cartoon Network revamp that I LOVE!

I originally received Castle Greyskull as a child and lost it somewhere along the way. But when I was 21 or 22, I asked Mom and Dad and Santa for the new version. I was so excited to open it on Christmas morning.

As I was sorting the pieces and being rather O.C.D. about it as one should be when putting together a TREASURE, my Dad wandered into the room and asked, "Son, do you need any help with that?"

I laughed and told him I was an adult now and did not need the help, but thanked him.

Today as I revisited my magical toy, I could not help but wish I had let him sit down and help me with that. Oh, the ifs, they can get you if you allow it.

So...

By the power of Greyskull, I have the POWER!

Paragraph and thought change: "Glee" is astounding and I cannot wait to see it, my new favourite and those are always fun to explore. :-)

I stumbled upon this quote whilst researching Sandi Patty (Me? Never.) and it stirred me. I thought I would share it with you. I adore quotes that make you feel like someone put to paper/screen what your heart needs.

"Yesterday came and went. Like a vapor, it disappeared. But you left something behind yesterday. A piece of yourself, a piece of the legacy you're building. Today, you'll create another piece of it. And tomorrow. And all the tomorrows after that."

I do not know what my legacy shall be, but I am once more enjoying the journey. May the piece of yourself you bestow to the world be one of joy, of peace, of love, of open-mindedness, of glee (had to), and of green potentially frightening castles.

We all "have the POWER" to leave a legacy that can change all who encounter it, if we choose to believe in ourselves.

Much, much hope,
Dustin

Loving the Squiggly

I was typing the other day and instead of hitting the ! key I hit the ~ key. Two odd altercations happened between two friends and me via facebook so I have deactivated my account for a bit. It was hurtful and unexpected. So when I hit the ~ key it made me smile and forget all that nonsense. ~ ~~~~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~ ~~~~ ~~~~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dustin

And With This, Farewell

This blog has been a dear friend to me. I am not good at farewells, but truly this is anything but. I look at it like this - I love the phoenix, the symbolism of it all, the power of rebirth. Hence why I named my blog/musing screen after one. :-) So, I am leaving this particular blog to start another one, one that fits me NOW, the one that I can share in a new way. So this feels right. Thanks to those who have read my musings throughout the years. I hope you follow me to my new musing home entitled THE TWELVE THAT IS DUSTIN BAYLAN. Yes, I am changing the name, the story of that is on the new blog for you to read. Here is the link: http://dustinbaylan.wordpress.com/ Much love, much hope and joy again, much potential... Winks and smiles of the Cat that is Cheshire, Dustin Baylan

Holding the Key

Only I am solid ground. Those whom I love - the new, the familiar - can be my circle, my connections... but the connection to self is the key I have been missing. Peace fills me as I hold the key and begin to unlock the doors of my life. Only I am solid ground and I embrace the beauty of me. Dustin
