People say what we're all seeking is a meaning for life. I don't think that's what we're really seeking. I think what we're seeking is an experience of being alive ... so that we actually feel the rapture of being alive. That's what it's all finally about.
Artists are magical helpers. Evoking symbols and motifs that connect us to our deeper selves, they can help us along the heroic journey of our own lives.
The cave you fear to enter holds the treasure you seek.
