"心灵的钟摆在理智和荒谬之间摇摆,而不是在对与错之间。"
— Carl Jung
Simplified Meaning:
Our thoughts tend to swing back and forth between ideas that make sense and those that don't, rather than between what's morally right and wrong. Imagine you're trying to solve a big puzzle. Sometimes, you have ideas that fit perfectly and help you see the bigger picture. Other times, your ideas are wild and seem silly, even though they help you think outside the box and get creative. Thinking isn’t simply about choosing good over bad. It's about exploring many different possibilities, some logical, and some strange. For instance, in history, many discoveries, like the Earth circling the sun, felt like nonsense at first but turned out to be true. So, it's important to let your mind explore freely, as this can lead to surprising and valuable insights. This can be applied to your life by encouraging you to not dismiss seemingly silly ideas too quickly because they can lead to new and innovative solutions.
