>Try to break it down - what is it about myself that is so deserving of this wrath? My physical self, my personal qualities.
How are we to understand the energy that we put into hating the (from one point of view) unremarkable physical and personal qualities we have?
Because we understand ourselves so well?
Or because we don't at all?
We live in a world where things are valued more than people, and this lesson some of us learn early?
As a culture we have a LOT of difficulty with integrating negativity?
Images from a popular culture that finances itself on the promotion of envy?
Beats me.
