The colour from my
“Find Hone Use” doodle had
bled through the paper, So
I thought to use it as part of
doodling about what lies on the far side
of our daily practices.

A ritual is an enactment of a myth.  By participating in a ritual, you are participating in a myth.*
Joseph Campbell

This is my story
and my ritual –
Each day to read and journal
and doodle and blog and
meet with people.

Unfolding surprise and
stirring imagination, so that
3,500 posts later, the garden
is growing.

What an amazing world, what
amazing people,
What possibilities.

*Joseph Campbell and Bill Moyers’ The Power of Myth.

For the first time in my life I saw the truth as it is set into song by so many poets, proclaimed as the final wisdom by so many thinkers.  The truth – that Love is the ultimate and highest goal to which man can aspire.  Then I grasped the meaning of the greatest secret that human thought and belief have to impart: The salvation of man is through love and in love.
Viktor Frankl

*Jonah Paquette’s Awestruck.

What is it we are questing for?  It is the fulfilment of that which is potential in each of us.  Questing for it is not an ego trip; it is an adventure to bring into fulfilment your gift to the world, which is your self.
Joseph Campbell

The world is alive, generous,
and waiting patiently for us
to figure it out.*

The empty part of the drawer is what makes it a useful tool.

Same goes for a filing cabinet, a toolbox and a calendar.

Slack is underrated.*

What do you want to say?  Why does it need to be said?  What if you could say it in a way that has never been done?  How might you do that?*
