Jung didn’t have much to say about self actualization I dont think. it was more Abraham Maslow and Carl Rogers. The term refers to what is possible after you’ve managed to take care of all your other needs, and what is left is to become the best most genuine expression of your possibilities you can be.

What are the chances that they will actually be respectful do you think. Might there be a case for simply not inviting them?

Sorry for your loss OP.

Just because the vote system is winner take all doesn’t mean that there aren’t Americans who are upset with this outcome.

Nice way to say it

This isn’t good advice for everyone. It might not even be good advice for most people. However, I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt that it would be good for you to do this.

Nicely done
