| the silver chairSo i've been thinking about the silver chair recently (the C.S. Lewis book, part of the Chronicles of Narnia). mostly about the chair itself, and how it some times seems like we, or I at least could use the opposite type thing, rather than a chair that binds when the "fits" of remembering who I truly am set in, which is a great metaphor for the death and shame brought on by sin, rather If only there was a way to, when forgetful of my true identity, be bound from acting like a lapdog, at best, or a slave, in truth. Well, there is no such thing, one of the hazards of freedom is that there is no binding. However, in my brief reading, I found the part where the witch (or queen) of the underworld is trying to enchant them all to forget about Narnia, she tries to play it off like all the things they remember is just thier imagination expanding things she has in her underground world, the Sun is nothing more than a lamp, Aslan, the lion, nothing more than a house cat. well, the marshwiggle seems to stand up pretty well to it, but towards the end, even he starts to doubt, he grants that all he remembers of the world above may be a dream, but then he says, "all I can say is that, in that case, the made-up things seem a good deal more important than the real ones. Suppose this black pit of a kingdom of yours is the only world. Well, it strikes me as a pretty poor one. And that's a funny thing, when you come to think of it. We're just babies making up a game, if you're right. But four babies playing a game can make a play-world that licks your real world hollow. That's why I'm going to stand by the play world. I'm on Aslan's side even if there isn't any Aslan to lead it. I'm going to live as like like a Narnian as I can even if there isn't any Narnia."..."We're leaving your court at once and setting out in the dark to spend our lives looking for Overland. not that out lives will be very long, I should think; but that's small loss if the world is as dull a place as you say."
'nuff said.
