Whether small or great, and no matter what the stage or grade of life, the Call rings up the curtain, always, on a mystery of transfiguration--a rite, or moment, of spiritual passage, which, when complete, amounts to a dying or a birth. The familiar life horizon has been outgrown; the old concepts, ideals, and emotional patterns no longer fit; the time for the passing of a threshold is at hand.

--Joseph Campbell


Forgive those that hurt you, protect yourself, and move on.

--a hard lesson learned by myself and passed on to Mr. Aarne.
