Public Myths, Private Dreams

Inspiration

Myths are public dreams, dreams are private myths. We must be willing to get rid of the life we planned, so as to have the life that is waiting for us.

Joseph Campbell

Food For Thought

In today’s podcast, I explore the depths of symbolism behind our private dreaming and the collective myths to which we are exposed.
