Over the past week I have been spending most of my time perched upon my mage-chair, thinking.
These many hours thinking have resulted in a realization:
I can't go it alone.
Though many have attempted to reach magedom solo, none have ever succeeded. And though I am tempted to break this tradition by accomplishing this feat myself, I am a busy "Trainee to Be A Mage", and I simply don't have the time. So I decided...
I needed a mage coach.
I have sought out the best. The #1. The top dog. The top dollar. The ultimate. The cream of the crop. The apple of my eye. Four time olympic mage team coach.
Zacharius.
He will put me through the paces. He will push my 'til I can go on no more. He will test my limits, then break them like they were made of tempered glass! He will yell at me and insult me and make me feel so bad about myself that there will be nowhere to go but up! TO THE STARS.
I have utter confidence in my decision, and I have already started Mage-conditioning. This is the first real step on my journey. I have to leave my old life as a normal non-mage behind..
I know who I am now...
I am Eden.
And I am Training to Be a Mage!
Eden,
ReplyDeleteThough I had full confidence in your ability to deveat the feat of obtaining magedom alone, I respect your humility in seeking a mage coach. I think that Zacharius was a wise choice in teacher. He will work you to the bone, but I have faith in you young trainee. YOU WILL ACHIEVE THIS! But keep in mind, this is a treaturous (?) journey that will test you to the max of your abilities. You will do well young grasshopper. Keep it up.

Young Padawan, you must look to the force for guidance instead of towards this folly called magedom. Leave these f triple primes and join the Dark Side!!!!
ReplyDeleteWOW powerful posts all around!! interesting to see differing views-----all trying to be constructive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteIn my opinion,
"He will test my limits, and then break them like they were made with tempered glass!"
really shows your determination! You're not afraid to be broken....
My heart is so looking forward to watching you take those shattered pieces and turn them into tempered glass mosaics when all is done!!!!!
stars and magic*
