We're in a free fall into the future. We don't know where we're going. Things are changing so fast. And always when you're going through a long tunnel, anxiety comes along. But all you have to do to transform your hell into a paradise is to turn your fall into a voluntary act. It's a very interesting shift of perspective . Joyfully participate in the sorrows of the world and everything changes. Joseph Campbell
About This Quote

The above quote is from the book "A New Earth" by Eckhart Tolle. It is a very optimistic and encouraging message. The first part of the statement says that we are in a free fall into the future. We don't know where we're going and things are changing so fast.

But we should not be afraid, because we can turn our free fall into a paradise. All we have to do is to turn our fall into a voluntary act: it's a very interesting shift of perspective.
