Sometimes, people will justify inaction with unprovable statements so they can avoid being proven wrong.

That’s kind of the opposite of the hero’s journey.

Be a light unto yourself. You’ll inspire others to do the same.

Eventually, all religious difference will fall away, and there will be no false idols.

The tears we shed can be used to water new aspirations, new dreams, new goals.

Or they can collect into a stagnant puddle.

I’m lazy by nature. Ironically, I’ve found that to enjoy as much ease as humanly possible means I have to be proactive, disciplined, and audacious.

The inevitability of adversity will channel your life into a dread-inspiring horror story. Maybe a humdrum drama, if you cower from the prospect of ever taking a risk.

Or you can heed the Call and strike out on the hero’s journey. Within the short time we enjoy on this Earth, we can be the protagonists in our own adventure stories.

Risk makes life into an adventure or a tragedy, depending on perspective.

I can capitalize on opportunity, or I can retreat further and further into a fear-borne fortress, trying to ignore the fact that it’s actually a prison, destined to crumble with the passage of time.
