The repeating characters of world myth such as the young hero, the wise old man or woman, the shapeshifter, and the shadowy antagonist are the same as the figures who appear repeatedly in our dreams and fantasies. That’s why myths and most stories constructed on the mythological model have the ring of psychological truth.

Mmmm. Mmmm. And more mmmm. No young heros, no wise old men or women and no shadow antagonists in my dreams. If I were to follow the affirmation above, I would conclude that I am not human, I am deranged or something doesn’t really work there.
In my fantasies I live in a library… I have money enough to rent a Bentley… Sometimes I’m a mushroom goddess…
Fine. I’ll confess: I’m not human. I whished.
Have fun dealing with psychological truth. Pasto kalo.
