Fire


Fire: often misunderstood as the clean strong flame.. also the creative & volatile element, capable of strange, erratic yet enchanting deadly dance. Both the inspirer of dreams and will to carry it out, it too is the fire that boils the deep waters of emotion, tampered with the touch of Earth's holding properties, can lead to people with strong grudges. "Foregive? Perhaps, but never forgotten".

The Fire children are often strong and opinionated, one way or another, some acknowledge it, others not., but in all cases, teaching these prodigal (real [academically speaking] or otherwise) are often difficult, for Fire often burns alone, and where they Will to burn, and choose WHAT to burn. Often (from experience), " the only way to fight Fire is with Fire" , and paradoxically, the only way to teach fire, is with Fire itself too. A thin line is drawn between burning a path for the student, and leading it by hand, and a thinner line between burning WITH the child, and burning out the child.

So let the Fires play their own games, for only the Fires understand each other
