Carl Jung said: “I am not what happened to me, I am what I choose to become.” I want to stimulate some thinking about that and how it looks, so I came across this on November 22, where Stewart of Dark Matters a Lot posted this video:

Carl Jung pointed out that “Knowing your own darkness is the best method for dealing with the darkness of other people.” Beyond Meds posted a video and article, apparently by Monica Cassani, on Alan Watts speaking about Carl Jung on Accepting the Darkness of Self and Others:

Jung also said:

“The privilege of a lifetime is to become who you truly are.”
“The meeting of two personalities is like the contact of two chemical substances: if there is any reaction, both are transformed.”
“Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves.”
“Loneliness does not come from having no people about one, but from being unable to communicate the things that seem important to oneself, or from holding certain views which others find inadmissible.”
“Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.”

If I said, “I just want to be there, at the outcome; making money or living in peaceful bliss.” What would you tell me?
