Thanks for another great post! Found this sentence really interesting
> You don’t realize that you’re myopic and self-obsessed and cruel.
The whole paragraph and this sentence in particular feel so personal and so self-critical that it feels like the shadow of self-hatred is still there even as you're trying to reject it. Curious if this was intentional.
Always enjoy reading your thoughts and really looking forward to the next one :)
I agree with this statement not because the article is in anyway lacking a unique perspective. The conclusion does seem to defeat the premise of being in a state of self loathe and constant criticism.
This resonated brightly like a tuning fork. Thank you for writing this piece.

I read the first paragraph of this several times. It is so insightful that it made my hair stand up. Then it just got better.
