Being a whole person [E] What does it mean to be a whole person? |
Greetings, Thomas! I found this using the Random Read and Review button. Wow, I love it. I always enjoy discovering the psychological type of essays around here, and I find myself generally fascinated by the concepts of psychology and trying to study oneself and figure myself out. Your approach is greatly helpful. I have long considered myself a deeply dualistic person in every aspect, from the type of people I want to associate with, the level of association I want, the things I enjoy reading versus what I like writing, the music I listen to, right down to the vitally important things like politics and worldview. I'm a person of faith, yet I can't agree fully with any established religion. I read emails from Breakpoint and Ultraviolet. It's enough to drive one crazy. I don't know what to think about anything because I think too much about everything, yet I never seem to be thinking about what I should be doing in life... Ok, enough ranting about me I enjoyed reading this, it was great food for thought. Your parable of the hungry kitten was interesting, as we see two people who approached the issue from two narrow-minded perspectives, and one person who used a whole and healthy mental approach to do what I immediately thought they should have done. I always try to think about issues in a well-rounded way, but I'm not sure this particular example carries over to other areas where we should seek wholeness and our own complete self-actualization. Yet at the moment I can't really think of any better examples because this does show how our own understanding of self and acceptance of all parts of ourselves creates real world effects that can spread globally, ultimately, rather than simply being a mind game we play when we have nothing better to do than contemplate the meaning of life. A basic reminder to use Size 4 Verdana font because I'm on mobile and can't tell if you're already using big clear font, and aside from that this was perfect. Great work. Take care, thanks for sharing, and keep writing My review has been submitted for consideration in "Good Deeds Get CASH!" .
