This is a great quote from Joseph Campbell. To be fully alive, I need to experience my life and be alive. Thank you Bill for a great quote and picture.
This is a perfect post! Thank you Bill! 🙂 xx
What a beautiful picture. Saw this reblogged on Ivon’s blog. As for the quote… I think it starts with the experience and then we go on to the meaning… It probably is connected to how at ease we feel with being alive.

I’m dedicating this to my friend, Perpetua (Seeker). Thanks for all the inspiration and support. 🙂
Love the quote, love Campbell. Thank you. 🙂
And, the photo of that place is gorgeous. 🙂
Yes it is those experiences that make us alive- be it positive or negative because they either breathe life into us or out of us.Thanks for such profound thoughts.
Great Post.
Life is ever expanding, contraction is death.
I agree with Campbell.The meaning is a human invention but the ezperience is beyond the intellect.
