Dreams escaping from Towers
The castle or fortress tower metaphor gives us a powerful symbol for the ways in which human ambition can be confined by fear. It reminds us of the importance of breaking free from self-imposed barriers and embracing the unknown in order to break out our ambitions and invade our full potential.
The songs this week are the dreams on your battlements.
Are you going to let them fly - or fall?
