A meaningful life is one lived in relationship to the Self and to the archetypal rhythms of nature. While we each need to navigate our own way through life, we learn of these natural rhythms and the life offered by the Self when reading fairy tales, legends, and the mythological journeys of heroes and heroines. It is through these texts that we hear a voice which extends beyond our personal understanding of life, a voice that both beckons us on to riches, while also warning us of great tragedy. |
