Positive Process

The frightful giant beast slithers along eking ever closer to the claimed territory of dread. It creeps closer and closer… Gasp! Anxiety rises up into throat as beast hisses threat of panic, happiness. It hisses again, happiness. Dread stakes its claim and holds firm against beast. Wait! Beast looks much smaller than first thought. Beast only moves slowly and gently as it crawls along leaving a trail of hissed happiness. In fact, beast’s presence brings comfort, if only for a moment before dread panics. When beast allowed to linger, dread loses claim. Soon both share territory. Unclear which is beast…unclear. Must choose.
