So what does it mean when I say, "Dragons do not stay within the societal molds"?
Well. There are so many references and "assumptions" that you've seen one dragon, you've seen them all. Oh REALLY ?!?! Seems to me that individuality and that personality uniqueness has escaped the dragons? - Somehow, I believe that was a statement made in ignorance or even out of a lack of concern for the possibilities, and lack of interest in the scholarly way of thinking.
Dragons, as spirits, deities, helpers, and even where there ever may have been any incarnation thereof (I believe so, anyway), would be endowed with incredibly diverse personalities and very powerful ways of expressing them. For so many of the visions and meditations I have had, to include a few "guided tours" by several of them, I have come to discover that they are indeed as individually-expressive as WE are (and many of our beloved "pets" and animal-companions have shown us their abilities to unique to one another). So, I take exception to the "one-size-fits-all" thinking that has mostly emanated and been uttered by those who already had a negative judgment towards anything that differs from them and their way of thinking. Therefore, this robs the individual of his/her equal ability to participate in adding to the greatness of society, as well as robs the observer of any chance in seeing just how beautiful Nature and Nature's God really are!
Perfection is not in "sameness", but in every single unique thing being able to coexist together in a Divine, Natural Harmony. - THAT is perfection!
Besides,
Too much of "sameness" means not only in strengths, but also in weaknesses! This is also why Nature decided to evolve some life-forms beyond CLONING as a means of reproduction.
Evolve, Grow, Be!
This can never happen with completely homogenized "nature". Uniqueness is necessary, and is where Nature and Nature's God expresses the greatest power.
The Dragons of Ancient, already knew this.
