Awe
Many in our society navigate within a shrunken sphere; rarely do they stray too far from home and when they do its almost entirely encapsulated, contrived or vicarious.
There is scant room for soul-searching in our culture, seek out the nearest pharmacy, devour the handiest self-help book. Time alone is a diminishing commodity. People who formerly ministered with these concepts are also dwindling. Where are the life philosophers of today? Where are the thinkers, elders and the caretakers of myth? How does a culture foster mentors, healers and artists of life?
