A poem that captures the magic of love’s light,
For love is a thing that defies explanation,
But still fills our hearts with pure delight.

It sparkles like stars in the midnight sky,
And it whispers secrets that we cannot deny,
It wraps us up in its warm embrace,
And leaves us with a smile on our faces.

Love is a thing that can make us whole,
It can lift us up and make us feel bold,
It can heal our wounds and soothe our pain,
And make us feel alive once again.

But love is also a thing that can be fleeting,
And leave us wondering if it was worth believing,
But like magic, it can always return,
And light up our lives with a brilliant burn.

So let us hold onto love’s enchanting power,
And bask in its glow, hour after hour,
For love, we know it’s true,
That love is creating makes all things unexplored.

So be it, and it will always be magical!

In a world that can feel so bleak,
Where troubles mount from week to week,
It’s easy to lose sight of hope,
And to struggle to cope.

But in the midst of all the pain,
A glimmer of light can still remain,
A spark of imagination,
To help us find our inspiration.

Let us dream of a brighter day,
Where love and peace will lead the way,
Where all people are treated right,
And the world is bathed in golden light.

Let us imagine a bright future,
Where everyone has a fair fight,
Where every voice is heard and seen,
And all live in harmony and green.

It may seem like just a fantasy,
But hope and dreams can set us free,
So let us keep imagining,
A world that’s just and thriving.

And as we work towards that goal,
We’ll find the strength to make it whole,
And with each step, we take in love,
We’ll bring that hopeful world above.

[A greater unity always tries to emerge in everything we experience, even neurosis. The widening of consciousness is at first upheaval and darkness, then a broadening out to wholeness — Carl Jung.]

Carl Jung believed that the process of individuation, or the journey towards self-realization and wholeness, is the human psyche’s natural and innate tendency. He also believed this process involves integrating the self’s conscious and unconscious aspects.

In the context of neurosis, Jung saw it as a symptom of a lack of wholeness or unity within the psyche. He believed neurosis results from the unconscious attempting to compensate for the conscious neglect of certain aspects of the self. Therefore, he saw neurosis as an opportunity for the psyche to achieve greater wholeness and integration.

Jung believed that the widening of consciousness is a process that involves facing and integrating one’s shadow, or the repressed and unconscious aspects of the self. This process can be challenging and involve upheaval and darkness, which may require confronting difficult emotions and experiences. However, as one moves through this process, one can experience a broadening out to wholeness as one integrates these previously neglected aspects of the self.

In summary, Jung believed that greater unity always tries to emerge in everything we experience, including neurosis. The individuation process involves integrating both conscious and unconscious aspects of the self. The widening of consciousness can involve upheaval and darkness but ultimately lead to a broadening out to wholeness.
