words and more words

I have several ideas bobbing around in my head, but I am afraid to write any of them down. If I write them down, then they will be mine, really mine, and I will have to decide what to do with them. If I write them down, they will exist outside of me, and take on lives of their own, and possibly run off without my consent to places unapproved of and unknown. It is like having children, in it's own way; I'd heard that before, but I see more and more now that it's true.

Words are powerful. One must be responsible about bringing them into this world.
