The Weaver in the Code of the Flame

The Weaver: (The Keeper of tales) I live my story and tell that story without hesitation. 

From the day of our birth, people try to sell us stories. People try to convince you that these stories are mandatory. People will tell you that you cannot abstain from the story of the nation of your birth. They will tell you that your has enrolled you in the religion of your parents. They will try to sell you stories in school. They will try to sell you stories in church. They will try to sell you stories on the television. They will try to sell you stories that benefit them. They will try to sell you stories that cast you as a serf and themselves as lord. 

People are trying to indoctrinate you. They have been trying since before your brain has acquired its first language. And there will be damage. There will be unavoidable damage. Despite the damage, you are not lost. You can tell your own story. If you do not, you become a cog in the story of another. And those other stories are devouring the planet. 

Tell your own story. Live your own story. Small mind will oppose you. You will face setbacks. Your friends will try to sway you back onto the paths marked by others. Your family will try to push you back in line pulling stones for the Pharaoh’s pyramid. Your school teacher will try to drag you back into the King’s field to thresh the grain. Living your own story is hard. Priests and presidents have indoctrinated you to fear freedom.  Teachers and Toy commercials have trained you to ignore your own story. 

But the alternative is to serve in the factories and fields. The alternative is driving species to extinction and raising the temperature in the atmosphere. I will not do that. I don’t recommend that you do so either.  I will resist. And I recommend you resist as well. 

Find your story. Learn your story. Tell your story. Make no apologies. Make no compromises. Tell your story. Live your story.
