“To refuse the call means stagnation. What you don’t experience positively you will experience negatively.”
~ Joseph Campbell, 20th Century Philosopher & Mythology Expert from A Joseph Campbell Companion: Reflections on the Art of Living
(Soul) Phone rings.
It’s God on the other line.
You just let it ring… and ring… and ring…
Not good.
You stagnate.
All that potential positive energy you would have unleashed on your hero’s journey?
It comes back against you. And destroys you.
Eek.
…
Jesus said the same thing, btw: “If you bring forth what is inside you, what you bring forth will save you. If you don't bring forth what is inside you, what you don’t bring forth will destroy you.”
