There is no one story that will replace the American dream, but storieslike this one—and there are thousands—can inform the myth or mythswe create for building and preserving the next culture. In order to do so,however, we must recognize that we cannot live without myth, for it is anessential part of our humanity. If we attempt to do so—given the fact thatsomething in us needs myth—wewill only create more myths that echothe American dream—with themes of heroism, greed, entitlement, narcissism,exploitation, exceptionalism, and myriad abuses of power. How we prepare for and navigate collapse will provide the raw materials for the myths we make and will live by in a postindustrial world.

It will necessitate living as if our very breath is a gift and every person in our lives is an opportunity to pass on the gifts we have received. The death of the old paradigm and all of the trappings of industrial civilization will providespace to forge new values, new relationships, and minimize, if not completely obliterate, the concept of debt from human consciousness.

If theshadow is not recognized and dealt with, it will dominate an individual or . . . community, resulting in untold suffering.
Carolyn Baker
If we can practice opening to the crises in our personal lives as teaching moments, as evolutionary stepping stones, we will be far better prepared emotionally and spiritually for the trauma that collapse will foist on us and everyone around us.
Carolyn Baker
Fundamentally, what all forms of positive thinking about collapse come down to is our own fear of death.
Carolyn Baker
If collapse is anything, it is a planetary immersion in the maelstrom ofparadox. Unless we understand and honor paradox, we will end up, like all ofthe mainstream media on earth, asking all of the wrong questions.
