[Artemisia] Baron's War Favor

[rayzentz at aim.com]

It's 
ike taking a step back to my childhood when I truly believed I could change the 
orld if I did what was right.

I believe we still can!   That's one reason why I do some of the crazy things I do... and why I still teach.

If we're going on about the "magical things happening beneath our noses in the 
he everyday, modern world" then I have to sing praises to Neil Gaiman (Thank 
ou Tianna!).  However that's another author that I wouldn't even put in the 
ame class as Harry Potter.  There's a wonder and joy in the world that comes 
rom viewing it as a child.  Even in the face of enemies there's something...I 
unno...naive, maybe? about the way that Harry views the world.  We become so 
aded as adults and we lose that.  I think that's part of why Harry Potter 
ppeals to so many of us.  He exists within the ideals that we honestly believe 
nd that we truly thought the world would live up to when we were kids.  It's 
ike taking a step back to my childhood when I truly believed I could change the 
orld if I did what was right.  It's a beautiful faith to have and most people 
ose it as they grow older.  We meet those vicious people who would hurt us as 
oon as look at us.  And we suddenly realize that the beautiful, shining Good we 
eld so dear...it's really hard to hold it up in front of you and keep doing it 
hen you're faced with the selfish darkness of the rest of the world...and then 
e found the SCA and believed again. :D-Maysun, done waxing philosophical...well, 
or a minute or two at least...I also stayed up all last night with Harry and 
'm a bit tired...that always makes me poetic and thoughtful. :)
