The thing I was getting at is that you make these amazing feeling statements but many try to take them as thinking statements. Ah, but that statement is based on the logic of the circle w/centerpt [self] Div Guest w/ ego on circumference. Jung says 1] the Self is center n totality of psyche BUT dwells in the unconscious, ergo 2] needs the ego, center of consc, to eat the poached egg [make it consc.! next step is to remember 3] to share that consc consciously w/CENTER>. The poached egg is a stand-in for all the wonder of life in this manifest world!that it is logical, thinking at ego level, but the devotion of sharing is feeling. I am NOT [i hope] lacking in thinking function, but in old age have learned the value of feeling. We need a balance of both, n'est pas?

We need a balance of both, n'est pas? Dear Alice... I hope you didn't take my comments as a criticism of your thinking abilities which i pray to have even a portion of when I'm in my eighties. But what strikes me about your words is their compensatory value (in the Jungian sense of feeling being = to valuing) for all the heavy thinkers on the list. <<3 Carol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
