Myths are human truths. For literally thousands of years they have inspired artists, poets, states people, historians, teachers, parents, children, indeed, all people who are moved by story. As opposed to lecturing at people, myths entice and enchant, instill wonder and delight, help to cope with loss, in short: they are narrative maps helping people to navigate the journey of their lives. And because they are formed of metaphor and filled with poetic insight, they are an integral part of teaching people to think creatively and critically. In a world where young people are bombarded with media and consumerist messages at every turn, myths can help them to think for themselves, to pierce beyond the veil of symbolic narratives, help them better discern lives of quality and delight for themselves, their families, and the societies that they themselves will grow up to shape.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
