I appreciate the lens of mythology on story and the depth of your reflection on where that takes me/us/all. It surely does feel like I have many characters inside in a mish-mash of seemingly paradoxical contradictions. This reflects the inner contemplative arc of siting with them all as they morph until I love them for their insight and imperfections. Say, Mike, will you write soon about ‘A Christmas Carol’ and the questions and reflections its ghosts inspire this time of year? Loved it when I heard it. 🙏🏼
