The Dance Between Freedom and Belonging
Imagine standing at a crossroads, feeling the weight of your past holding you back while yearning for a different future. This tension-between who we've been and who we might become-lies at the heart of Adlerian psychology. Unlike Freud, who believed we're prisoners of our past traumas, Alfred Adler proposed something revolutionary: happiness isn't something that happens to us-it's something we choose with courage. The dialogue between a wise philosopher and a skeptical youth reveals this fundamental truth. We aren't determined by our histories. The past doesn't exist in any objective sense-it's constantly rewritten based on our current needs and goals. When we believe "I can't change because of my childhood," we're actually selecting memories that justify our current worldview. A man who initially remembered only being bitten by a dog later recalled being helped by a stranger once his perspective shifted from "the world is dangerous" to "the world is safe." This isn't just philosophical wordplay-it's profoundly liberating. Your "now" decides your past, not the other way around. Yet most of us resist this freedom because true change requires a kind of death-giving up our current identity completely. Instead, we focus on two sides of a triangular column: "That bad person" (blaming others) and "Poor me" (self-pity). But the third side-"What should I do from now on?"-is the only question that leads to real transformation.
