"People say that what we're all seeking is a meaning for life. I don't think that's what we're really seeking. I think that what we're seeking is an experience of being alive, so that our life experiences on the purely physical plane will have resonances within our own innermost being and reality, so that we actually feel the rapture of being alive."
- Joseph Campbell
Joseph Campbell shares abstract words: meaning, experience, seeking, alive, resonances, reality, rapture, and reality. Each person must discover the sensory details to explore them.
Share an experience that defines life's meaning.
Seek a creative way to describe a moment in time.
Use all the senses to detail what alive feels like from the inside out and the outside in,
Show a scene to detail the reality of resonances.
After you have written the details, do you feel the rapture of being alive?
