Quote of the Week

We're so engaged in doing things to achieve purposes of outer value that we forget that the inner value, the rapture that is associated with being alive, is what it's all about.

  - Joseph Campbell

And how very true is this?  As children, we live for the moment and strive for happiness in all things.  Once we become teens, we are taught that this is not how we are to live our lives.  Our sole purpose, once we become adults, is to present the perfect picture to the outside world.  No one is to know that we are struggling, that we are unhappy, that we dislike our jobs.  And they wonder why so many of us are medicated and numb these days.  At least I'll never have to worry about that.  Well, the numbness anyway.  I may just end up medicated if they ever catch me. LOL
