Conflicts of opposites

So I've had a little break in my writing here.
I've been a bit unsure about what to write about.
Today it hit me that I should continue in the Jungian trail a bit longer.
Other trails really needs a bit more work before I present them here.

I've been thinking about how many times we come over conflicts with other people.
Conflicts that seem like they can't be solved.
Or if they are solved someone will be quite unsatisfied.

From what I've experienced so far in my own life with the principles
of Jungian types at the back of my head.
I've come to the acceptance that the conflicts really are unsolvable.
Jung states so himself many times in his book "Psychological types"
that reconciliation has been utterly impossible for anyone who has tried.

Now what kind of conflicts are we talking about?

Take a divide like unity vs seperateness.
There is an innate tension and opposition isn't it?
One party wants to be left alone, the other wants everyone to share and participate.
Now this may be on many levels and in society one may want to share on one level
and participate on another. But we don't really choose into what society we get born.
We arrive somewhere and meet all sorts of expectations.

So we cope with these.
Later we meet others who may have gotten other expectations and what have you.
And now the dance of expectations start up.

Now having earlier mentioned Jungian types, I would like to mention that different types
lean in different directions on how they would go about it.

There are 16 different combinations of Jungian types.
And even though people who fall into those types share some significant similarities,
there is very much variation in how it is expressed.
I'll come back to that later in another post.

Some of the types lean toward a unity way of dealing with the world.
Some of the others lean toward a more separate way of dealing.
BUT since we all are thrown into the great mix we call society,
many people have to compromize their natural inclination.
Hence the conflict I referred to earlier.
Some manage to adapt with ease, others feel stiffled and oppressed,
or isolated and deserted. Depending on what camp you fall into.

The people who manage to adapt usually manage to spin a big illusion around them,
so it seems they are doing what is expected, when in fact they are not.

Now many people will of course object to there even being such an inherent tension
in society, and declare that people who don't fall into their camp
are <insert negative label>. Only proving how invested they are in their own take on it.
When you have two parties heavily invested into opposite views there will be conflict.

Now if there really is this great divide, wouldn't it be really visible?
Yes and it is!
Like take communism and capitalism.
Everything shared and everyone for themself systematized.
Now you will find people of all types arguing for both sides.
But when you talk to these people they don't really have the same idea about what it is about.
And that is why both these systems are inherently unstable.
If everyone in the system where of the same mind it would work great.
But they aren't of the same mind, some people don't understand what they are arguing for.
That the system they are supporting is the manifestation of everything they despise.

Now unity vs seperateness isn't the only divide that are revealed trough Jungian types.
But it is one that is easy to illustrate cause we live it every day in every transaction.

Feel free to leave comments, I would love to hear other peoples views about this.
Even if you disagree and place yourself in some other camp. ;)
