Why Dragons Walked The Earth

Chasing the dragon, most know it as heroin, is an opiate that is an extremely addictive class one drug. Heroin is known as chasing the dragon because, when you first use heroin, you feel euphoria. You keep trying to get more and more of the drug to feel the same feeling you did the first time you used heroin, but it is never the same because your body has created a tolerance for the drug. Therefore, you are chasing a drug that is very destructive and bigger than yourself, just like a dragon. You are chasing after the dragon wherever you can and do whatever you can to get more. We, as Catching Dragons, are a safe-house for drug addicts, more specifically, heroin. Too many deaths come from drug overdoses in Licking County so we have come up with a plan to stop the addiction through a healthy, therapeutic environment by creating a place they can go to seek refuge and help for many loved ones in need.

As humans, we all possess great qualities. We develop memories that we can cherish forever. Hopes and dreams help us strive to do great things. However, we all have our demons that we all tend to conceal. The famous poem “Beowulf” is renowned for the battles against Beowulf and many monsters. The battles in the poem pose as metaphorical battles. Beowulf defeating the monsters represent him trying to overcome his demons. The last battle was between him and a dragon. To the reader’s surprise, he lost the battle. The dragon represents Beowulf’s greatest demon. Despite the dragons that Beowulf faced that are external, my dragons are more internal.

Fairy tale characters, along with other fictional beings, have entertained and inspired many children for centuries. Various little girls, all over the world have dreamed of one day finding their Prince Charming and meeting their godmother, while little boys were on the look out for dragons and dragon slayers. At some point however, the magic in many of the little children eyes slowly drifted away, and their belief in this fictional reality wavered. Americans in the 21st century seem to have lost their connection with imagination. In “Why Are Americans Afraid of Dragons?,” Ursula LeGuin claims that Americans fail to read fictional novels because they have lost faith in an alternate reality, and find books useless, due to the lack of personal gain. Yet, LeGuin overlooks the many maturely developed Americans who have never touched any fictional print, and exaggerates their self-indulging nature.

Government and business are two great dragons, caught in an eternal dance. The world is at peace as they gracefully glide around each other, but it is a precarious balance. For as one becomes larger, the dance devolves into combat and shakes the world. Balance is perhaps the most important virtue, and is the most important aspect of society; the balance of the dancing dragons is what ultimately protects the people.

In this world, in the presence of a lie-consuming dragon, lies take the form of monsters. The size of said monsters depend on the severity of the lie being told, and how badly the liar doesn’t want to be found out. But this doesn’t apply to all dragons, however. Dragons come into existence to fulfill the need or a strong wish of a human. A human who has seen all of their loved ones die and firmly wishes for solace will bring about an immortal dragon. A human who has been trapped all their life will bring about a dragon with powers of intangibility. It’s not a hard concept to grasp, really.

What we understood is that importance is primarily monistic in its reference to the universe. Limited to a finite individual event, importance turns to be important. “Importance”, as indicated by the dragon, is defined by something that is not limited to a finite measure, but is in fact related to something that is infinite. On the other hand, “Expression” is defined by a specific, and finite moment that can fade into “Importance” over time. The dragon first describes “Importance” with the example of the golden vessel. He says that the “jug is an absolute democracy of atoms. It has importance, or thereness, so to speak”. This democracy of atoms, no matter what happens to the jug, is still a democracy of atoms. It depicts the infinitude of

All over the world there are many legends including dragons. Dragons are large, carnivorous reptiles. They are located from America to Europe to Australia. They can endure harsh climates and any landscape. “Dragons can live just about anywhere” (Doeden 9). Dragons live in homes called “lairs”. “ The most common lairs are found in deep underground caves” (Doeden 10). Even underwater dragons live in caves. Dragons have to hunt for their food. They can hunt wild animals but when they need a quick and easy meal they go to farms for livestock. Farmers get annoyed with dragons hunting their livestock and many try to kill these “beasts”. Dragons are nearly impossible to kill. “ With fiery breath, razor-sharp teeth, and high intelligence, they are almost impossible to kill” (Doeden 6). Some
