Thanks GW, well said. As a person in recovery (Recovery?) I have to really watch out for my Ego becoming bloated and gigantic (much like the giant caterpiller in Monsters vs. Aliens - very fun movie! btw) and hideously terrorizing innocents all around me...
As a side note: My last attempt at Journeying was a bust. I found all doors closed and locked. But the reason was apparent immediately. I was not approaching the Journey with proper respect, nor the right attitude or state of mind. It was frustrating but also kind of validated the Realness (a word?) of it all. If that makes any sense...
