Awakening Your Destiny

Introduction:
You Are an Adventurer!

Mary awakens to her blaring alarm clock. She hurriedly, moves through the dawn racing to her mediocre, unfulfilling job. She wishes she had the courage to leave. As she drives down the road in a familiar trance, the newscaster on the radio drones on about the deepening economic recession reporting an increase in unemployment numbers. As she listens to the news, her thoughts drift to her own job and how she will probably not receive a pay increase this year. She reaffirms silently how unfair this is. Her thoughts continue to drift to her over-obligated schedule, and her anxiety goes up another notch. Her day at work is spent in hyper drive wishing she were somewhere else. Needing the money to pay the bills, she pushes on. In the break room, she hears coworkers talk about the big game or the reality TV finale. They gossip about the lives of the movie stars, and real life drama. When the day is finished, she drives home on autopilot and mindlessly sings songs about broken hearts, taking jobs and shoving it, and partying until dawn. She remembers back when partying until dawn was fun and free. What happened to that girl? She cannot think of anything she does now for fun. What is fun anyway? Finally she returns home and decompresses on the sofa, spending the rest of the evening in a hypnotic state in front of the TV. She watches shows about desperate housewives, criminals, and tops it off with the late news covering a horrific account of the devastation of the most recent natural disaster. She drops in bed emotionally drained and without any energy left to move. She thinks about everything wrong with her job, her life and the world; how difficult life has been in the past and how worried she is about tomorrow.
This repeats day after day, and blends into weeks, months and years. As time goes by, her discontent increases. She knows there should be more to this life, but what and where to begin?
