I want to be a mythologist. I love the idea of making up a story and telling a story of purity and justice and mercy to anyone who will listen and pointing them on to harmony. Why do I need a college degree for this?
I strive to live in a world of seeing not only a single reality but to see every person’s reality. I tend to ignore the facts and embrace my emotions. I am learning how important it is to understand reality in order to create myth. I spent a bunch of time ignoring my own reality hoping that it would disappear, but now that I have unpacked the boxes in my mind and begun to understand my own reality I am learning that I can use that reality to understand the possibility of another reality and be a whole person as I enter them.
I have been told that I can be like a child sitting in the middle of traffic with my eyes and ears closed assuring myself that if I can’t see it, it is not there. As I moved from the interstate I have become more whole and more able to engage myself and learn about realities other than my own.
