Idealists want to search for Self, to become themselves, to have
a goal, a purpose in life, to be self-actualized, to be and
become real, to be what they are meant to be and to have an
identity which is uniquely theirs, to become self-actualized into
a perfect whole and to have an identity which is perfectly
unique, to have meaning, to have their significance appreciated,
or at the very least, recognized as existing, to have integrity,
that is unity, with no facade, no mask, no pretense, no sham, no
playing of roles, to be genuine, to communicate authentically, to
be in harmony with the inner experiences of self, to avoid a life
of bad faith, to live a life of significance, making a difference
in the world, to experience life as a drama, to be sensitive to
the subtle gestures and metaphoric behavior in relationships, to
help others become kinder, warmer, and more loving human beings,
to reform the world, to romanticize their experiences, their
lives, the experiences and lives of others.
