It takes all the running you can do to keep in the same place. If you want to get somewhere else, you must run at least twice as fast as that.
--Alice, in Through the Looking Glass

Stress is sure to happen whenever the gut says, 'No way!' and the mouth says, 'Sure, why not?'

This process of the good life is not, I am convinced, a life for the faint-hearted. It involves the stretching and growing of becoming more and more of one's potentialities. It involves the courage to be. It means launching oneself full into the stream of life. Yet the deeply exciting thing about human beings is that when the individual is inwardly free, he chooses as the good life this process of becoming.
