Very interesting. Might I ask if you are acquainted with Carl G. Jung and if he was a source of inspiration? I do see a lot of Jungian concepts in the way you describe things. Especially when talking about yourself.

I was into Jung as a teenager, but realized I couldn't understand his books (now I call it aspiration), so stayed more in Joseph Campbell world. I see a lot in common with him now, but I hope to make way more of a difference in the end, since now we have so much more and quicker quantifiability of who we are, and awareness of sufficient species threats to know what to coalesce our best for.
