by Aaron M
About Me View My Posts
Joseph Campbell, the scholar who studied the parallels of the myths of human history and how they relate to us in modern times, taught that if we are to accept that we are actually here, we must say "yes" to it all. That is, that life has a lot of beauty and harmony, but also a lot of harshness, pain, and death. If we are to exist at peace while we're alive, we must say "yes" and accept the way life... 5/31/2017 9:00:00 PM
