Writer's Block: Know by Heart

[Error: unknown template qotd]When I was a little girl, I was saddened to learn that my favorite hymn didn't say what I thought it said.  I thought they were rejoicing while bringing in the SHEEPS.  I didn't even know what a sheaf was in those days.  I had mental images of herding a bunch of bouncy, happy lambs into a barn somewhere.

You can't cuddle a dang sheaf.

well. 

I suppose you COULD, but it wouldn't be much fun.

My Golden Compass Daemon

Open Solitary Soul

You are a caring and introverted personality. You need a lot of personal space, and you find dealing with strange people and new situations to be stressful and tiring. You need to relax with time to yourself in order to recharge after a highly social day. Despite your dislike of loud noises and big crowds, however, you are not shy. You have a good sense of your own self worth, and you are not afraid to be yourself.

You tend to wear your heart on your sleeve, and you are open and honest. Deception does not come easily to you. You have nothing to hide, and you are not afraid to tell people your opinions or express your feelings. This does not mean, however, that you tend to fly off the handle. Your own belief in yourself helps numb some of the wounds that are inflicted by cruel or thoughtless people. When they do hurt you, though, you can't help but show it.

Your daemon's form would represent your introverted nature, your expressiveness, and your strong sense of self. He or she would probably take an active interest in the world around you, and would have a lot to say.

Suggested forms: Panda, Arctic Fox, Domestic Cat, Wood Thrush, Spitz dog.

My daemon possibilities:



Wood thrush:   Cute, but not cuddly enough.

 

Spitz dog:  Cute.  Cuddly.  Sweet.  A good possibility.   But would he chew my shoes????



Panda:  Cute--cuddly, but awfully large.  And there is no bamboo in Minnesota.

 

Arctic fox:  Cute, cuddly, smart, fuzzy, adorable face.  Obviously knows the score.  Yep--I will take one.




Domestic house cat:  Cute, cuddly, intelligent, sweet, watchful, affectionate but independent.  We have a winner.  :D

I am pleased with my daemon choices.  Heh heh.
