Nietzsche was the one who did the job for me. At a certain moment in his life, the idea came to him of what he called "the love of your fate. " Whatever your fate is, whatever the hell happens, you say, "This is what I need. " It may look like a wreck, but go at it as though it were an opportunity, a challenge. If you bring love to that moment-not discouragement-you will find the strength is there. Any disaster you can survive is an improvement in your character, your stature, and your life. What a privilege! This is when the spontaneity of your own nature will have a chance to flow.
