Threshold Guardians
As a writer, we encounter many threshold guardians throughout our stories and even in our lives. Who has been your threshold guardian?Perhaps you were a troublemaker in school and the teacher who does things “his way” decides to teach you some lessons. Or maybe you were the cocky football jock who thought his coach was holding him back.Every story… every life… has threshold guardians.It’s my job to find them, explore their minds, and write their story.If you ever meet a writer, he/she is assessing and analyzing all the elements which formed your life. We can’t help it. People are our love.

Can i be my own threshold guardians? If my story is told by me in a life lesson style where my younger self was really the bully in the underlying threshold of the story but the other elements of my life are just false “threshold guardians”…
Of course you can be your own threshold guardian! Shesh, I can think of the ways in which I have to myself. Actually, at this present moment. I’m working through it however and am making great insight. But anyway…. Yes, totally. Maybe the other elements weren’t “false” threshold guardians but perhaps different archtypes to help you move through your journey.
