“When the summit of life is reached,when the bud unfolds and from the lesser the greater emerges,then the “one” becomes two,and the greater figure,which one always was but which remained invisibleappears to the lesser personality with a force of revelation.”
I know that my age–45–plays into the deck. I’ve reached mid-life. It effects most of us one way or another. (However I really don’t think one
has to reach this mile marker for this to occur.) But whatever the reason there’s definitely a merging taking place. There’s an awakening mentally, psychologically, and spiritually. I’m moving out of the one I was in the past, that was content with less. That hide and was soaked with fears, doubts, worthlessness, and advancing steadily into the “greater“. Merging the “two”. This is deeply important psychologically and is very spiritual in nature. It also encompasses me moving into the area of my personal power. My artistic, creative side, and harnessing it.
I have to say I’m thankful. I’m healing old hurts and issues. I’m moving past what has held me and kept me defeated. The results: personal growth, change, transformation, consciousness, an improved life overall and in countless areas.
With all that said it is also one of my top three greatest hopes that it assists me in healing the harm I’ve created with my children. I would love to have a healthy, loving, excepting relationship. My honesty is the only avenue I have to attain that. Ergo the work I’ve been doing with my life coach and the posts here… Honesty. Peeling away the layers. Looking at the yucky that stinks. It’s only honesty that my kids will hear. It’s what heals. It’s what reaches the soul…
Love ya,

-it’s now 1 a.m. and the whole time I’ve sat here all slumped, fist under chin, propping myself up, but I did it
post done
-I wish I could remember where I pulled the quote from without going and scanning my books for the highlight that I know I gave it–I mark up all my books with highlighter, pen, and notes. But I really don’t want to get up and search right now. So without shifting my body from this space I can fairly confidently say, it was likely from Jung. If not then it was from “Becoming Woman” a fab book for a woman who wants to come to understand herself psychologically as a woman.

Wow
I found this place on Yahoo looking for something completely unrelated- now I’m going to need to go back and go through all the old material. Good bye my spare time this morning, but this was a really awesome find!
