Hello Suzie
You sound at one with the less advantaged who cross your path. I can, from
other areas, see how you would feel such joy at the accomplishments of your
pupils as opposed to the budding concert pianist.
I do hope that time and money allow you to pursue your idea of Jungian
psychoanalysis. I'm not a Jungian myself, but reading beyond your words
the Jungian slant feels right for you.
Kindest
Gerald
