"“Participate joyfully in the sorrows of the world.

Our job is to straighten out our own lives!
Cuando hablamos de arreglar los problemas del mundo, estamos descortezando el árbol que no debemos. El mundo es perfecto. Es un caos. Siempre ha sido un caos. No lo cambiaremos. Nuestro trabajo es enderezar nuestras vidas.”
Joseph Campbell
