We have enough common psychology under our belts to know that psychology doesn't explain or heal everything and that it isn't the fulfillment of awareness, but its beginning. We are undergoing a shift in paradigms in which we are trying to develop new models for humanness and human responsibility. This is no small task. Our individual lives are placed under increasing pressure to respond adequately to both inner and outer change.", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Christina Baldwin" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/christina-baldwin/we-are-living-in-a-renaissance-of-personal-writing-people-are/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/746/christina-baldwin-12158_awareness_we-are-living-in-a-renaissance-of-person_2689026.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/746/christina-baldwin-12158_awareness_we-are-living-in-a-renaissance-of-person_2689026.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/746/christina-baldwin-12158_awareness_we-are-living-in-a-renaissance-of-person_2689026.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“We are living in a renaissance of personal writing.

Writing effectively also demands logical resources and facility for language. Plunging headlong into the murky unknown of self-discovery, one seeks to scoop out a rendering of their soul, clasp an expressive illusion of what teasingly lies beyond their grasp. Playing badminton with an idea that haunts their serenity, a writer swats the elusive birdie back and forth along the corpus callosum, the bundle of nerves that comprises the hemispheric neural highway that connects the left and right brain fiber. An author’s ameliorative depictions on paper are a byproduct of inter-hemispheric dialogue carried out between the two rival parts of the brain’s interlocking neuroplasticity. The resultant succored scribbling reflects a tentative truce reached between these split-brain fractions hosting tangled sentiment. The resulting manuscript marks the author’s laborious chore of assembling scattered thoughts and fastening jumbled memories into a lacquered illustrative depiction.”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Kilroy J.
