In the 1933 movie King Kong, the starring gorilla appeared to be 25 feet tall--so humongous that airplanes had to shoot him down from the top of the Empire State Building. But the model used to depict Kong in that era of primitive special effects was just 18 inches high. This discrepancy is similar to the gap between your perceptions of your personal monster and the truth about it, Virgo. It may seem to be a giant, but in reality you could hold it in the palm of your hand.
How apropo...
I just read that James Doohan has crossed over in the Nexus. May his journeys unfold with the adventure and sweetness he so very much deserves. Safe Journeys, Montgomery Scott. You will be missed. Say hi to Bones for me over there, will you?
