Disappointments in Love, Betrayals and Losses

Disappointments in love, even betrayals and losses, serve the soul at the very moment they seem in life to be tragedies. The soul is partly in time and partly in eternity. We might remember the part that resides in eternity when we feel despair over the part that is in life. Thomas Moore.

In order to make a real accomplishment he must sacrifice a number of other potentialities. He must give up his identification with wholeness and voluntarily accept being a real fragment instead of an unreal whole. To be something in reality, he must give up being everything in potentia.

— Edward Edinger, Ego and Archetype
