#Self Delusion

[wayti-blog]

“Above all, do not lie to yourself. A man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to a point where he does not discern any truth either in himself or anywhere around him, and thus falls into disrespect towards himself and others. Not respecting anyone, he ceases to love, and having no love, he gives himself up to passions and coarse pleasures, in order to occupy and amuse himself, and in his vices reaches complete bestiality, and it all comes from lying continually to others and to himself. A man who lies to himself is often the first to take offense. It sometimes feels very good to take offense, doesn't it? And surely he knows that no one has offended him, and that he himself has invented the offense and told lies just for the beauty of it, that he has exaggerated for the sake of effect, that he has picked on a word and made a mountain out of a pea--he knows all of that, and still he is the first to take offense, he likes feeling offended, it gives him great pleasure, and thus he reaches the point of real hostility.”

― Fyodor Dostoyevsky, The Brothers Karamazov

I have reached such an age that I am now fully aware of who and what I am. This is me, warts and all; there is nothing to hide. Or, I have lived the lie for so long that I have become one with the fallacy.

Caught Myself!

So this morning I was looking up love bombing for an unrelated issue. Then realized I have been future faking and love bombing over the past couple weeks.

Reform eugenics was in part self-deluding; notions like "anti-social character" and "highest levels of activity" were freighted with class-dependent biases.

Self-Delusion

A Sermon Delivered on Sunday Morning, October 19 1862 By Rev. C. H. Spurgeon At the Metropolitan Tabernacle, Newington SELF-DELUSION “Many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able.”—Luke 13:24. EVERY wise merchant will occasionally hold a stock-taking, when he will cast up his accounts, examine what he has on hand, and ascertain decisively whether his trade is prosperous…
