Dragons or Princesses?

Whenever I’m facing a new challenge I hunt for this quote, so I’m posting it here for next time: “Perhaps all the 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 its deepest essence, something helpless that wants our love.”  from Rilke’s Letters To a Young Poet
