I’ve been reading Joel Bennett’s new book, Raw Coping Power: From Stress to Thriving. He uses a Joseph Campbell quote, “The very cave you are afraid to enter turns out to be the source of what you are looking for.” It’s my first Army parachute jump, and I am the 1st jumper. I walk to the door, look down, and immediately think, “I could die doing this”, green light/jump master yells GO, and I’m still standing at the door. But after a kick from the jump master, and a perfect jump, I discover I have something inside of me - a spirit that for 66 years has energized my life. Read the book and learn to “thrive”!
