Life is
infinitely more marvelous than our business and work, money
and illness, family and bosses would make it seem. It is
precisely the function of myth to thrust us out of the
quotidian into the miraculous. One lives life more deeply,
with greater peace and joy, when one lives with the enigmas
that permeate it….
...myths are reminders from spaceless eternity of the stuff
of which our bodies, minds, souls, spirits are made. They
wake us up, and help us live with, and within, the mystery
that is the matrix of our being.
