dragons and princesses

"Perhaps all dragons in our lives are princesses who are only waiting to see us act, just once, with beauty and courage. Perhaps everything that frightens us is, in it's deepest essence, something helpless that wants our love." - Rainer Maria Rilke (When I read this quote of Rilke, it made me realize that there are those moments and people that await us to discover what is beyond the daunting. There are situation in our life that can be scary as a fierce dragon but I guess, it too only wants to test us, if we are deserving of something worthy in this lifetime.)

Thanks for posting this discussion. Well yes this quote holds so much depth in itself. There are certain people who are waiting for us to get the best out of ourselves. Also we often face certain circumstances in our lives that tend to teach us a lot of lessons and in the process makes us wise that there is a lot of things hidden within us. What say?
