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
