We are

we are a product of the tiny small increments of positive and negative reinforcement

self-consciousness, covering up things, protecting ourselves

who we are is what people have allowed us to be.

it is definitely easy to see weaknesses in people, the shit that they shelter....the ways they justify actions (excusing themselves) and its easy to abuse that because that is something they hold onto.

when we start apologizing for ourselves/justifying actions then we become an open target for abuse. and since we are the only ones to protect ourselves, apologizing for the self, does not allow for empowerment

the importance of maintaining the instrument...that is why it scares me when people are abusive/harmful mentally/physically to their body, its the only one they got, they are the only ones to protect it...if they can abuse that, then they can definitely abuse others...those are the scariest people...they will fuck you up one time....the reason some people arent gentle and loving to body is cause of the bullshit that has been instilled in them, they are protecting themselves in the only way they know how: in the only way they did as children when you don't have more resources at your fingertips, they dont have the right tools, they dont seek out the right tools, they have been damaged (the WORST) but same people who abuse selves and thus abuse others---building a perpetual cycle of this bullshit, some people are just plain fucking lazy (technical term)...they dont seek it out and dont want to...its easier to complain and fuck around, blame other people and not take any responsibility for actions. after a certain age (age (and time and space) is relative) you need to start taking responsibility for your actions = adult.
