Jungian Stress

Thought for the day:

The artist's life cannot be otherwise than full of conflicts, for two forces are at war within him (or her) -- on the one hand the common human longing for happiness, satisfaction and security in life, and on the other a ruthless passion for creativity which may go so far as to override every personal desire... There are hardly any exceptions to the rule that a person must pay dearly for the divine gift of creative fire.
- CARL JUNG
