Persons with differing self images will thus have differing possible occasions of fulfillment. What to one person may be an occasion of fulfillment----may to an other person be an occasion of monotony, guilt, frustration, or insensitivity. Objective reality by itself does not create fulfillment, satisfaction and meaning. Not even the self as one element, plus objective reality as another element, creates fulfillment. Fulfillment is found in relations - -- in the relation-ships between: the self images which self has of self, the images self has of what constitutes fulfillment, the images self has of what others see self to be, the images self has of what others see as constituting fulfillment, the images self has of what self has done --- is doing --- will do, the images self has of what others have done --- do now --- will do, etc. Hope and meaning are found in the occasions of fulfillment made possible in the real relations in which these elements find their reality. Fulfillment is found in relations. Without fulfillment there is no sense of well-being, no sense of hope and meaning, no will-to-live. Without fulfillment selves cease to live. To some people the mastery of and extensive use of techniques appear as occasions of fulfillment. If they do not know real persons in authentic meeting---such hope and meaning as they do know may thus originate in and be occasioned by the mastery and/or use of techniques. Such self-images and relations generate technocrats who participate in reality in ways which intensify the essential uncertainties of life. Occasions of fulfillment depend critically upon self images---but can not be defined by self without respect for the nature of reality, including the essential uncertainties of death and birth and the necessity of dealing with finitude. Some people have few occasions of fulfillment --- because their self images fail to include appropriate occasions of fulfillment. Others have few occasions of fulfillment because their self images define fulfillment in terms of the realization of impossible dreams. Fulfillment is found in relations which nurture hope and meaning in meeting. (c) 1999 by Paul A.
