My Personality Is A Far Away Cave

Simon Birch and his extraordinary experiences clearly represent the five dimensions of a person’s personality, S.P.I.E.S. Through his positive and negative thoughts, experiences and memories, Simon conveys the five dimensions of a personality: social, physical, intellectual, emotional and spiritual in a different way than most.

ALSO - people are rarely a “pure” form or completely one way or the other – most are an amalgam – so when responding to any question on any personality / psychological test, go with your first instinct as to what the best response is for you.

In Plato’s “Allegory of the Cave”, Plato and his student contemplate the idea of cave dwellers who are confined to life inside of the cave. They wonder what would happen if one of the cave dwellers became enlightened by stepping out into the world outside of the cave. When the enlightened cave dweller returned to tell the others about his discovery, the philosophers speculated that those in the cave would be in complete denial and may even go as far as to kill the enlightened cave dweller.

As stated by Joseph Campbell, “The cave you fear to enter holds the treasure you seek.”

1. The first wave is that men and women must be completely equal. Why is this controversial? What conventional thinking does this idea challenge? (Book 5) It is controversial because men and women are by nature very different and if they are receiving the same education and taking on the same political roles then this abolishes the held notion that men are to be the more educated for fighting and ruling.

After entering the canyon, I saw the light slowly fade as I further immersed myself into this endless waterway. My only company was the sound of the steady, rippling water, and the quiet voices of my friends nearby. I stretched my hand toward the dank, rough wall to get some assurance. As I did so, pebbles from the crumbling structure fell into the water. I felt the cracks in the sandstone that the water had sculpted after years of erosion. My feet slipped over the rocks on the bottom and I sank into the water. The water climbed to my shoulders and the light faded into pure darkness. I felt my heart rate intensify just before I turned a sharp corner. My eyes widened as I saw the first light since I had entered the cave. Three distinct rays of sun slipped through the rocks above and filled the canyon, illuminating the bright orange color of

The cave is underground and dark; it consists of human beings who have been living down there since childhood. These people are almost like prisoners since

Only through confronting the emptiness and breaking down the defense mechanisms can power be reclaimed. "The cave experience begins with an encounter with the life experience in reverse." The anger is addressed first so that the love issues can be dealt with and, in doing this, the parental ghosts must be faced. This is important because if our parents did not satisfy our emotional needs, we enter in similarly unproductive relationships with the intention of working out the same issues. (p.90) Through this experience, women also recognize that the need for male approval originates from needing their fathers' approval and affection. (p.91)

There once was a young lady named Veronica who had fair hair and blue eyes. She was really tall and thin however was a tomboy. Along with climbing and going out was absolutely her thing. On a Sunday evening, she thought to investigate the lovely Mount Cave unaccompanied that was famous in her head or additionally known as an enigmatic place. Prepared with her climbing sack stuffed, she began to climb the Mount Cave.

After answering multiple questions for different situations I was able to obtain information about my personality. ENFJ is a very unique and has various skill sets that will allow me as individual to work in multiple roles. Occupations with good interpersonal skills that allow productive collaboration through any working process. Although this personality can be challenging it still has many benefits to help build careers successfully. There are many high rank positions that this particular personality type would be effective in. Some examples are sales, social services, community care, legal and the list goes on. In all of these roles there are a broad range of occupations that would fit perfectly based on the personality type. However, the ultimate focus is to reach their main dreams. Although they may see their selves as helpers or enablers, this creates the challenge.

The Allegory of the Cave has many parallels with The Truman Show. Initially, Truman is trapped in his own “cave”; a film set or fictional island known as Seahaven. Truman’s journey or ascension into the real world and into knowledge is similar to that of Plato’s cave dweller. In this paper, I will discuss these similarities along with the very intent of both of these works whose purpose is for us to question our own reality.

I believe this can best be attributed to the mind’s natural inclination of being trapped (conforming) after being subjected to just the sensory parts of life within the cave for an extended time. The subject’s senses are but shadows of the real things and not a full understanding of the world they encompass. Sometimes it’s human nature to fear the unknown or the philosophical truths and through education of the psyche, one can hope to form a better understanding of knowledge outside of their

As I lay on my back I watched the leaves dance in the wind. I’ve lived in this grotto for years now, that I have forgotten what the outside world looks like. To others this place would look like a sanctuary with gorgeous green trees with fruits of every kind, vibrant coloured flowers, soft green grass and a sparkling lake, but to me this is prison cell that I can’t escape. Mountain high walls cage me in, making everything feel tiny and crushing any hope of freedom. I never knew how I got here. All I know is that went to sleep and woke up with giant walls surrounding my lake.

But as I, and many others can attest to, they will have their claims dismissed, and they will be shunned for trying to shake the foundation they’ve used to build their lives. But those outside of the cave shouldn’t be angry at those on the inside. Though that may be the first instinct, but upon further inspection, they may begin to feel a measure of pity for those on the inside. A quote that is very applicable to this situation comes from Socrates. He once stated that “the unexamined life is not worth living.” You don’t even have to pretend to be in the cave to know that a life of mindlessly staring at shadows on a wall is a dismal life to lead. Russell would implore these men to question their status of living. Had they have opened their minds to the simple POSSIBILITY that the one who returned from the outside world was telling the truth, who knows where they could be? But instead, they remain content to play games with the shadows that people force them to look at for the remainder of their lives. Proving once again, “the unexamined life is not worth

One place that I see every day but don’t put much attention to is my house. The house that I live in is near by a park and a gas station. My house is small and cozy is made of steel frames, the anterior part of the house has a beige and pink color that combine a beautiful shade. The inside of my house has many portraits of family members and drawings. I have a total of two bathrooms and four rooms a kitchen and two living rooms. We have a living room that’s used for grown-ups and the other one is used for the children. The kitchen table and chairs are made of wood, in the ceiling there is big chandelier. The walls of my house are painted in different colors that are green, beige and pink. I like that every room has its own different color, it’s not boring it brings life and shade.
