Want to Read $ 10.99"Why do we always believe that the path of our deepest desire would be so far from the path that God would have us walk? How is the path of desire so different from the path to the Giver of that desire?"-Scott Erickson, Say Yes: Discover the Surprising Life Beyond the Death of a Dream
"This isn't a journey of you becoming the perfect version of yourself; that's what cults are built on. This is the journey about receiving the gift of yourself - the beautiful, vulnerable you... that you're the kind of person who is relatable, touchable, and in solidarity with others on the journey of life."-Scott Erickson, Say Yes: Discover the Surprising Life Beyond the Death of a Dream
"Vulnerability is our relationship to our weaknesses, not our weaknesses themselves. It's the feeling we have when confronted with our imperfections. The image of being vulnerable is that of taking off our armor, making ourselves available to be intimate, to be touchable. To own your vulnerabilities is a move of trust, a move of solidarity."-Scott Erickson, Say Yes: Discover the Surprising Life Beyond the Death of a Dream
"Renowned professor and mythologist Joseph Campbell said: "People say that what we're all seeking is a meaning for life. I don't think that's what we're really seeking. I think that what we're seeking is an *experience of being alive*, so that our life experiences on the purely physical plane will have resonance on our own innermost being and reality, so that we actually feel the rapture of being alive."-Scott Erickson, Say Yes: Discover the Surprising Life Beyond the Death of a Dream
