  Thank you Linda for liking my pictures. Those trully were made in moments of utter anguish (which happen 20 times a day..lol).
  I tried to a give face to my inner torments. I wishing I had more beautiful material to work with.
  Not long ago I made a film on Nightmares. Maybe you'd like to see it.
  
  Of Nightmares and Daymares

  Hello back to you, Linda.

  Thank you for your message...so moving and rich...the alchemical gold releasing from the broken shards. We are all whole and then broken and then made whole again, with the warmth of wisdom, understanding and Grace..

  More later...I too, am a clinician. It is such a blessed calling. I am continually grateful and enriched..to be a container and a witness for the process of change and sometimes of magical transmutation...I am reminded of Oscar Wilde's words...
  "we are all in the gutter but some of us are looking at the stars.."

  Sorry that it took me so long to respond, Linda. I only just now found the email from you.
  Sometimes, technology just stumps me. Anyway, lovely to be here with you!

  Thanks for connecting Dr. Thompson  I receive your hand in friendship.  I find myself drawn to JS Grotstein's writings about WR Bion's concept of "O" --- which seems to overarch "nameless dread," beta elements, the "thing-in-themselves," the noumenon, "absolute truth," "ultimate reality," and "reverence and awe."  My understanding is that Bion founded a new mystical science of psychoanalysis; a numinous discipline based on the abandonment of memory, desire, and understanding.  Bion seemingly viewed mysticism as "seeing things as they truly are -- without disguise".  He, like me, are/was preoccupied with the central question of "how do we know what we know"; especially in light of therapeutic "epiphanies".  Fascinating stuff….

  I'm also deeply intrigued by the numinous aspects of male midlife ‘passages’; and Jung’s notions of a quest to find one's soul; at this stage of life, many males embark on all sorts of physical and spiritual pilgrimages, in an effort to find an ineffable something, a symbolical Holy Grail.

  Dear Linda ;Thank you so much,
  Just one further comment,
  I see other people as my reality,
  Without them, I cannot really see,
  They mean all  the world to me,
   
  The  conscious mind is a mystery.
  They know its history
  Yet It baffles their scientific mind .
  No answer to it,can they find, 
  It leaves them completely  blind.

  Yes Eighty two ; I write poetry every day, I paint pictures constantly,  I have three paintings I am working on at present ,
  Every night I study ,
  Last night played my book on Quantum physics 
  During most of today I listened to Steve Pinker's book being read I have a Galaxy tablet

  Fantastic !!!,' How the mind works' ,very interesting he is so lucid ,
  I have my gym ,through a doorway ,I use my treadmill and rowing machine my stepper.my exercise bike regularly and I play golf every week,
  I can run like a 21 year old I have been told, my grandson main ambition is to be fit and active like me,at my age ,my friends love my paintings so do I and my poetry is praised too,
  I love life ,and people,I am a great talker,
  I am interested in other peoples minds,
  Jung gave me a great start,I feel I am at the start of my life,
  I question Jungs beliefs but agree with his opinion 
  We know nothing for certain ,and we never finish learning,
  I have changed  my golf swing after 40 years;
  I have lengthened it now 
  I won a match with a friend aged 64 ,who plays every day ,
  I carried my bag he used a electrically driven trolley,
  As I ran up a steep hill, just to impresses;  him he said "Ken you put me to shame ".
  I came to your site because I am ever curious
  And seek,to understand why Jung's wisdom is ignored by most people on the net 
  My conclusion is that they are looking for what I have found,
  Jung's god the fact,the obvious to me;

  The god of the bible left Jung cold ,
  Whereas  it leaves  me horrified ,that such a virus,could enter the human mind,
  And how could they be so blind,
  But I do accept they have no choice,and love them all so much,
  And all of creation too.We live in an amazing Universe 
  Filled with amazing people, and wonderful life forms,
  I feel blessed to be among them,and it.
