FOLLOW YOUR BLISS

Joseph Campbell said, "Follow your bliss." What do we really love to do more than anything else? Are we following that love, that joy and letting it guide our way through life? Campbell himself found that he loved to study legends from different peoples throughout the world— so he made a career of being a mythologist. Alan Watts loved to research and explore Asian religions; he created the Institute for Asian Studies and spent his life doing what he really loved. Don Juan says to follow "the path with a heart." What kind of pursuit is our heart drawing us to follow? Let's not play it so safe that we are locked into some job or activity that we find tedious and unfulfilling. Step out now and claim the good your heart is leading you to— follow your bliss.
