Once upon a time …

Let’s start at the beginning, with once upon a time. Let’s feel a new born’s attunement with his mother. Look in on a child as he latches on to a security blanket to cope with fear and rejection. See an adult reinforcing that blanket and shaping it into a suit of armor to win approval. And finally, let’s imagine an authentic spiritual being free of fear, exposed, but invulnerable! That’s when the prince (or princess) appears–when he is no longer “needed.”
