“In Greek mythology, there is the story of a man, Theseus, who, in order to find his way home, had to find his way through a labyrinth that led him to a dark center. Stories like these carry wisdom we must encounter if we are to become whole. Most of us spend our lives trying to avoid the dark center, trying to find a shortcut around the labyrinth. But the only way to the light is through the dark. The only way to the other side is through the center. For it is in the dark center, in the heart of our own personal labyrinth, that we encounter the Minotaur—that part of us we have been taught to fear, the part of us we have been told is monstrous. Yet, if we have the courage to face what we fear, to look the Minotaur in the eye, we find that it is not a monster at all, but a part of ourselves that has been waiting to be seen, waiting to be loved, waiting to be integrated into the whole of who we are. Stories like these carry wisdom we must encounter if we are to become whole and become familiar with both your labyrinth, your way in, and your thread, your way out.”
