It requires courage to cast the accumulated myths of a lifetime to the wind. Our natural desire for simplicity, certitude, and the approval of others occasionally causes us to defend even our most flawed worldviews as if our very lives depended on them. Dead belief systems are difficult to bury for in doing so we enter a world we do not recognize; we watch the carefully crafted towers of our understanding crash down in ruins and we lose an integral piece of the only reality we have known, reinforced and imprinted on our minds by a thousand voices, internal and external.
