Individuation,

Not individualization—

Is explained to us by Carl G. Jung—

So, explain it this way to the young—

It is a search for our inner person's personality,

No need to understand further.

It is truly inside of us,

Certainly — it is not our druthers

To grandstand

But to understand

By removing the veneer

And calming the ruckus,

What remains is truth — sincere.


A/N: According to Carl G. Jung we are inwardly real and outwardly detached; individuation is the process of self-discovery.
