You Are the Hero
You are the hero
of your own life’s adventure,
but the dragon you must slay is within.
♥
Myths are public dreams,
gods and heroes born of human spirit.
The costumes are different,
but the passages of the hero are the same:
call to adventure, crossing of the threshold,
belly of the beast, ordeal, reward,
and return as the master of two worlds.
The hero is not out there –
you are the hero!
And the dragon you must slay lies within.
Be brave!
Hear the call!
Your life is a precious gift –
take a chance and fight for it!
You carry the divine vision for your life.
No one can tell you how to live it.
To be true to the hero within
is to be true to the god within.
