The man who walks alone

I thought of this after reading the Carl Jung quote (@magenta). I believe this is what happens after facing your own shadow. The alone man is different than the alone boy or young adult though. Being alone because you don't know how to get attention is different then being alone because you seek no attention or validation.

being alone because you seek no attention or validation

Is that good or bad to you? I see that as freedom. Yet I would not wish to harden my heart, only to see the reality of it all. To me he merely meant face yourself. Your own core humanness versus blaming. Not necessarily to be alone.

@Magenta I feel when you get to the adult version it's good, it means you've come to peace with yourself. You've dealt with your own shadow, you've accepted the scars, you aren't waiting to die but willing to live with or without anyone else's acceptance.

@Justafantasy Excellente'. Emotional maturity. Love that. Acceptance and grace for our humanness.
