Resilience and Courage Through Story: Accept Your Quest with Humility and Purpose

This is the final video of my series on accepting unexpected hardships and using stories to help overcome them in a lasting way.

Using Aragorn from The Lord of the Rings as our model, we've finally come to the crux of the matter. Time to accept our quest.

But this is a delicate and difficult thing. It can only be done after you've finished the first six steps of becoming a deeper person. And there are plenty of temptations to power and pride along the way.

As usual, Russian fairy tales give us subtle and wise guideposts on how to extend our deep hearts outward to others and accept our quest to live the deep life, as Aragorn did, with humility and purpose.
