Его Величество Альдо Первый Кавайный, Коварный и Неотразимый (с)))
Yes, I confess it... I do feel awkward about what if people mock me, what if they say I'm crazy again, what if they call me a stupid loser... I'm vulnerable in that. It hurts me deeply when they do. But I will still have the courage to speak of what I believe in, what I know to be true.
I think it's natural to feel afraid. We all do. But the important thing is, that you don't let your fear conquer you, that you act despite it. That you believe what you feel in your heart and are not afraid to admit it. Or rather, you are, but still do it.
That's one of the lessons the Otherworld has taught me. Be brave and stand up for what you believe in. That the wildest things could be true, that there is Magic and Dragons and True Love. That they come to those who are courageous enough to want them, to stand by their Dream even if the whole world is against them.
I love that moment in C.S. Lewis's "Chronicles of Narnia", in "The Silver Chain"... I don't remember the exact quotations, but that part has always been a great inspiration to me... when the Witch tries to lull the children into sleep with her magic fire, saying that there is no Narnia, that Narnia is just a silly fairy-tale, not real, that it is all an illusion... And then that wonderful froggy-creature stamps on the burning coals with his foot, even though it hurts him very much, and says "Even if all you say is true, even if there is no Narnia, even if there is no Aslan, and this is all an illusion like you say... then this illusion is so much more beautiful and true than your real world, and I choose to believe in it, and I will fight for it, and die for it, if need be." And then the spell is ended, and they defeat the Witch.
That's what I feel. Even though it hurts sometimes, even when the sceptics and cynics laugh in your face and call you an idiot for believing, even when the tiny snake of doubt conjured by them crawls inside your heart and you think, what if they are right and I'm just an escapist loser... I will still believe in my Dreams, in my Otherworld, for I know it to be True.
