our dark second Nature

Being condescending, diminish, ridiculing or teasing someone is a way we use to reject with a disguised form of aggression qualities, feelings and experiences we all have but which we can not acknowledge or carry within ourselves because they show us our vulnerability, and question how we want to look at ourselves. Our lack of or lost sense of wholeness does not allow it. So we give in to the feeling of guilt we have because we do not allow ourselves the influence it has over us, and we transfer the content that we have difficulty dealing with to others by being insensitive. We see and experience it around us every day at a personal level, collectively with our elected representatives, how our companies present themselves, and in how people want to control how we should perceive what they convey to us. For most of us, this becomes a kind of second nature. We lose our inner whole to this at an age when we have not yet learned to defend ourselves. It is deprived of us by those who matter most because they have also lost it in their adaptation to the collective ego and to its artificial collective personality. If we do not have a traditional setting to compensate for our loss we truly become lost. We have no way of navigating through the content of our shared totality.
