>>60972 I don't mean this as a personal attack against you at all but maybe if you developed stage 4 bone cancer and your mother came back from the dead more dependent on you than ever before then you wouldn't "surpass" your "limits" so much anymore. My understanding of the process of "self-realization" or anything similar enough to it is much less optimistic than yours. Yes I'm aware of the different parts that constitute me, no that doesn't make me an ubermensch, it makes me a loser with more awareness than he used to have. I actually don't think there's anything wrong with being that btw. Even better, I don't feel like there's anything wrong with being that. Or with the sunshine and rainbows self help book for women view of it, for that matter. I just think some people like to rationalize things happening in their lives through Jung's theories when from the outside it really doesn't look like that at all. I wish my shadow would show up at my room and tell me what lottery numbers to play or something that'd be great. I hope this didn't come across as me being jealous of your fancy new job because it's only like 5% that and 95% me being the usual argumentative autistic insufferable downer piece of shit
