Live it into reality..........................


For thousands of years, to be outside the dominant cultural story spelled death.  To be outside the band of hunter-gatherers meant you had been shunned by the village.  Deep inside, we want to belong.  This remains true today, but maybe for the first time in human history, modern society—the dominant culture—has become the thing that isolates us.  If you could track your way out of the burdens of modern life and create and existence that is much more an expression of who you are, then your own life could become a living mythology.  One that could inspire others.
     Inside of me I hear the wild self whisper, Live it into reality.
