In todays world, statements are made , sometimes deliberately, to promote misconceptions and untruths.
Here is but one example: "Self-actualizers are somehow both mature and childlike" This statement is true, however it was followed by; They manifest ‘healthy childishness’ and ‘a second naiveté,’" said one Abraham Maslow.
His statement was made about Micheal Jackson, in Jacksons support. I suppose he was using it in defense of Michaels "wacko" misleading personality. He used the word Self-actualized and tried to appy it to MJ.
A Self actualize person, indeed can be childlike, but never childish . Also , they can be naive, but not unaware.
A Self-actualized person, is at first, very responsible for all their actions. They would be overcareful rather than reckless (hanging a baby over a balcony) would never be the action of Self-actualization. It was that act, that told me, he wasnt who he said he was. And he duped many with his "We are the World" view. Those who are expressing the Soul, are never selfish, but Self aware. Something Micheal Jackson was not. He was germ phobic, fearful, and had a poor, self loathing,body image.
What MJ was , was a great entertainer, an excuse filled self delusioned man. Someone God would love, but someone who had little understanding of His Self.
