- This is a union presupposition too, that well, there's a bunch of things about you that are underdeveloped, and a lot of those things are because they're things you've avoided looking at because you don't want to look at them. There are parts of you you've avoided developing because it's hard for you to develop those parts. So, it's by virtual necessity that what you need is where you don't want to look because that's where you've kept it. When you see these stories of the hero journeying to unknown lands of terror and danger, that's what happens to you. It happens to you all the time. You're in this little safe space, like The Hobbit in the Shire, and then you know there's a great evil brewing somewhere, and you can no longer ignore it. So off you go into the land of terror and uncertainty, and better to go on purpose than accidentally, that's for sure, because at least you can be prepared. We also know that if you're going to face a threat, if you face it voluntarily, what happens is your body activates itself for exploration and mastery. But if you face it involuntarily, the same size threat, then you revert to prey mode and you're frozen, and that's way, way, way more stressful. It's way harder on your body."
