The Hero's Journey

We battle all the invaders and fight off all the problems. On our quest we encounter wonders beyond our description as well as monsters of a thousand kind. But with a pure heart, the wise man's powers, we slay the dragon, we liberate the treasure, and we return home with the prize.

Sometimes the hero's name is King Arthur. Other times the hero's name is Luke Skywalker. The hero could be a heroic parent who leaves a war-torn country and all possessions to start from nothing in a foreign land for their children.
Isn't this story sort of like your life story?
The Modern Journey

Meditation, yoga, spirituality, silent retreats, and all sorts of other modalities of shifting consciousness help to have us understand that our happiness comes without attachment to any external circumstance. Be here now.
But aren't these therapies distractions in themselves? They keep us from living the life that is given to us by seemingly random external circumstances (or divine intention).
How can we be happy embracing all the external circumstances that life has to offer?
Find a Game in the Scene

While such games can seem very tedious or childish, they are extremely entertaining and funny to watch. And the beauty is that the humor doesn't come from the characters' success—it comes from actors failing at their games.

A scene could be us waiting at the doctor's office. A scene could be a ride on a bus. A scene could be a group conversation. The question is, is our mind somewhere else, or are we playing full-out in the scene we're given?
No matter how adverse a scene may be, the game could be... talk to as many people as possible, go over our goals for the month, or hypothesize what past lives each person in the scene may have had.

Make your scenes in life fun. Find a game. Find a game in the scene. And live life like it's a giant improv game, scene by scene.
Let's love the world together...
Love,
