Witness: The Actualizing Tendency: There is a directional trend evident in all life: the urge to expand, develop, and mature; to express and activate all capacities of the organism and the self. Witness: Flourishing: A good life is a first-person experience that is resonant with this actualizing tendency, as the expansion, development, and maturity of one’s life; an expression and activation of all capacities.
