This is a repost from November 2, 2010. I needed to re-read this today. Life is a poem. Everyday is new. The great adventure does continue in my life. How deeply grateful I am.
Charleston Through an Artist's eye
We have not even to risk the adventure alone/ for the heroes of all time have gone before us /The labyrinth is thoroughly known/ We have only to follow the thread of the hero path/ And where we had thought to find an abomination, we shall find a god/ And where we had thought to slay another/ we shall slay ourselves/ Where we had thought to travel outward, we shall come to the center of our own existence/ And where we had thought to be alone, we shall be with all the world.
– Joseph Campbell

Adventure of poetry is recognizable so fear not that you might hear a child say I played you a song and you did not dance
