I too know what I am feeling, but fail to find the words to express them.

You guys keep up the good work!. Faithfulness always finds favor.The ideas are to get the brain going to get the juices flowing to stimulate your mind in how you see things. As i went thru the IP i realized there was a bigger picture out there. Much more than what i had thought before. Im pretty sure and its safe to say this is the purpose if the IP. The awakening part lol. dont feel like your less because you dont understaand it all. Itsnot to take it and comprehend 100% of it all but to give you the tools and the things you need to see. When you need it it will be there. Hope that helps you guys !

A long, long while ago I came across the Joe Campbell interviews before.

I listened, eagerly, even then attaching myself as a Jedi to the ideas, trying to stretch something around the conversations being held, and thinking that things that were said really meant one way of thinking.

But time has passed, life has moved on, and I'm in a *completely* different mindset now.

Some of the earlier things that I heard, I now hear in a totally different light. Other parts speak to me more clearly now, while others, I sometimes ponder if they're of any use to me anymore.

I think, as far as the Lessons and your Journal go, is that you're simply picking up this object, and writing down what you find in it. Whether you agree, disagree, what appeals, what's confusing, all of these things.

As time goes by, you may take a peek back at your writing, or listen to these talks again, and find something has changed.

We all grow and change, and I think the Lessons and Journal are a great starting point to see how our transformations begin. It's kinda neat to see that. :)
