Back to self

Now it is basic mythological principle, I would say, that what is referred to in mythology as “the other world” is really (in psychological terms) “the inner world.” And what is spoken of as “future” is “now.”*
Joseph Campbell

It is far better for us to return to our own unique and soulful cycles regularly, all of them, any of them.**
Clarissa Pinkola Estés

Each day
sweeps us away
from ourselves,
Out out towards others,
A big fussy world,
So we need
our way
back
to our self,
To our deeper place
of gathering
and pondering
and renewing–
