“This is an absolute necessity for anybody today. You must have a room, or a particular hour or so a day, where you don’t know what was in the newspapers; you don’t know who your friends are, you don’t know what you owe anybody, you don’t know what anybody owes to you. This is a place where you can experience and bring forth what you are and what you might be. This is the plan of creative incubation. At first, you may find that nothing has happened there. But if you have a sacred place and use it, something eventually will happen.” –

Joseph Campbell, The Power Of Myth. This was written in 1988.

After reading this, I left my normal life behind, and ran to the mountain. I’m still here. I found my bliss.
