What a Life of Struggle Between the Head and the Heart!

A good heart will at times betray the best head in the World. We live in a society where there are a lot of conflicts and individuals who do not get along, and you often hear the cliché phrase, “Kill them with kindness.” I do not agree with this statement. I think it is best to be direct and let people know how you are feeling. We all know those people in the office, who you have done nothing to, but are kind to your face and conspiring behind your back. Often times their poison is pretending to like you, so they can get crucial information and use it to take you down. That is their way of killing you with kindness. These types of people have the conscience of an assassin, and are often secretly haunted by a vague sense of enormous wickedness. There are concepts that help explain the basis for some of the most central figures that appear repeatedly in human culture, from the Bible through contemporary soap operas, like Secrets and Lies with Ryan Phillippe Season One. The characters that compose the basic nuclear family, i.e., father, mother, son, and daughter. Every one of these characters has both a bad and a good side. The archetypes tend to split these good and bad aspects into sharply divergent characters so that the father assumes, in general, a very different archetypal nature and character structure than that of the bad father.  #RandolphHarris 1 of 7

When all of the nuclear family characteristics are polarized, or split into their good and bad opposites, the following result: The good father becomes God. The bad father becomes the Devil. The good mother, the Queen. The bad mother, the Witch. The good son, the Crown Prince. The bad son, the Black Sheep. The good daughter, the princess, and finally, the bad daughter, the Harlot. The fairness of an individual should be adequate to conquer the weakness of their heart. Custom and the fashion of the World will not always stifle the voice of conscience. There are also secondary characters that also come into play. There are known as “colleagues” of the primary characters. As before, thy are split into good and bad archetypes: The good coworker becomes the faithful ally, the bad coworker becomes the disloyal subordinate, the good therapist becomes known as the Doctor, the bad therapist becomes known as the False Prophet. Once self-supported by conscience, once embarked on a career of manifest usefulness, the true Christian never yields. Neither public nor private influences produce the slightest effect on us when we have once got our mission.  #RandolphHarris 2 of 7

There are two additional characters whose purpose is to help the character transform themselves. Again, these as well are split into good and bad archetypal characters: The good winner or hero becomes Cinderella. The bad winner or antihero takes on a form of for example the “Godfather.” The good loser abdicates and withdraws from power and the bad loser must be removed or terminated. Some have the conscience of an angel and the impulses of a devil; and reason sits between them, for an umpire, with a fool’s cap upon their head.  To be marketed successfully, individuals are required to gain control of their images, making decisions based on a thorough understanding of all aspects of how marketing operates in the celebrity industry. The person trying to execute a high visibility plan is required to understand not just the tricks of projecting the right images, but how the best images are determined and how they can be produced. We are apt to connect the voice of conscience with the stillness of midnight. However, we wrong that innocent hour. It is that terrible “next morning,” when reason is wide awake, upon which remorse fastens its fangs. #RandolphHarris 3 of 7

Some people apparently have no feeling for whatsoever is the truly explosive forces of the human personality with which they are playing. There is no doubt that individuals can delude themselves into thinking that they can choose rationally at the conscious level “the images” they wish to project. What such people almost always fail to realize is that there is a due to be paid to the devil. The reason why one is bargaining with the devil is that although archetypes are generally split by their nature into polar opposites, the splitting is never person or complete. We presented a ledger sheet off the presumed benefits versus the cost of fame, one can never guarantee that one will reap only benefits without thereby incurring terrible costs to be paid to fame. With any archetype, there is an overlap and spillover between them that is tremendous. Thus, for example, the Good Father may be on its surface primarily beneficent. However, in order to round out its character, like that of all human beings, there is always an element of the Bad Father present in the Good Father as well, and vice versa.  #RandolphHarris 4 of 7

It turns out that no matter how pure or one sided we attempt to make archetypal images; we can never exclude something of its opposite from intruding if only for purposes of roundness, completion, or balance. Some gloss over too quickly because they either are unaware or choose not to become aware of the dangers in “choosing our images.” It is thus oblivious to the extreme dangers with which one is playing. The dangers come in the form of suicide, depression, drug addiction, failed marriages, and the like.  The reason is that choosing an image and living it are often two very different things particularly when the image that is chosen consciously may go deeply against the grain of the archetypes that naturally constitute the deeper against the grain of the archetypes that naturally constitute the deeper layers of the psyche of a human being one is tampering with.  The pangs of conscience, so much vaunted by some, do most certainly drive ten deeper into sin where they bring one back to virtue. Whenever a lie was necessary for their occasions, they brought it out with a careless ease and breadth although untroubled by the rebuke of conscience.  #RandolphHarris 5 of 7

One could cite hundreds of cases from the “true confessions” of fallen stars, for as we noted in the previous report, the “confessions” themselves are all part of the scripted story line of being a celebrity. “For me, becoming a celebrity was like being in a White Squall. Suddenly my life was bright and I was on a soap opera and in movies. Everyone was calling me the next James Dean. They wanted to take me to lunch, or lay with me. I was constantly meeting famous people and traveling the World. I had a house the size of a castle. I remember getting my first multi-million pay check. That was amazing! I put it in the bank. There seemed to be a lot of wine, women, winning. I lost my passport in Europe and being in Cruel Intentions got me through customs,” reports Ryan Phillippe. He goes on to say, “It all sounds so exciting and glamorous, and it was. I was having the best time of my life. However, I genuinely thought that people liked me for myself—for my acting abilities and work. When I came on the scene, I was naïve. I never expected to meet some many professional parasites. We shall avoid any abuse of this mode of representation if we remember that ideas, thoughts, and an object of internal perception is virtual, like the image in the telescope produced by the crossing of light-rays.”  #RandolphHarris 6 of 7

There is another consequence to being an archetypal that has been revealed. If archetypes, no matter how one-sided they appear on the surface, contain nonetheless a strong ingredient of their opposite which can burst forth unexpectedly at any time—indeed all the more when one thinks that one can reap only the beneficial aspects—then this means that at the most fundamental layers of the human personality Boundary Warping is present.  However, no matter how deep one penetrates into the human psyche, no matter what levels of depth to which one descends, one fins a fundamental lack of clarity and sharpness between the various aspects of the mortal essence and the problems and the issues with which it is struggling.  The point is that the Boundary Warping we fine in the media and with public relations representatives, both consciously and unconsciously plays on this fundamental Boundary Warping that is present at the archetypal level. The deepest sources of Boundary Warping, in other words, emanates from humans who want to be cool by association, feel they own you or your images, or just want to hustle you for anywhere from a few hundred to a few million dollars. Celebrities have a hard time surviving and are especially ripe for exploitation by the various forms and mechanisms of unreality that we have identified. #RandolphHarris 7 of 7
