21.01.2022 Informing my own life, and all my work as a therapist, is a consciousness of the ‘life journey’ towards individuation. I see this as the soul’s true destination - its homecoming. The ‘way’ is ‘long’, as Cavafy writes in his wonderful poem, Ithaka. It requires we find the courage to face the unknown and confront existential realities dread of death, uncertainty, loneliness with an always tenuous grasp on meaning, knowing we are free, yet wishing we were not. This poem r...epresents my own felt experience of the journey, using Homer’s Odyssey as a metaphor. The Unknown Shore Approaching an island Of unknown rocks And rearing cliffs, I am Ulysses, Anticipating the next terror. My ship cleaves The running waves, Dipping long and deep Into foam at leeward, While above me Curves the white canvas. It seems forever That I have stood Alone at this wheel, On this sloping deck, Feeling the great, gray rollers Slide below me, And the cold wet wind at my back. I watch the waves, The ship, The approach of the unknown shore, No Sirens can distract me, I am bound to this voyage. _____________________
