Live Like a Narnian: Christian Discipleship in C. S. Lewis’s Chronicles
When you follow your bliss, you begin to meet people who are in the field of your bliss, and they open the doors to you.
The conquest of fear yields the courage of life. That is the cardinal initiation of every heroic adventure-- fearlessness and achievement.

You are more than you think you are. There are dimensions of your being and a potential for realization and consciousness that are not included in your concept of yourself. Your life is much deeper and broader than you conceive it to be here. What you are living is but a fractional inkling of what is really within you, what gives you life, breadth, and depth.
If there were already a path, it would have to be someone else's; the whole point is to find your own way.
