Very interesting and informative! We sometimes attach too much unnecessary weight on ourselves, especially with our reactive thoughts and emotions. Self control is important to live in this world and not lose yourself in it. There are so many streams pushing and pulling us in so many directions, twisting our mental and emotional states like the proverbial wind caught in the storm. No wonder we often feel lost, not enough, or a lack of something tangible.

Yeah, normally we are like the fish in the ocean. Not aware we are sorrounded by water because it's taken for granted. I feel the dynamics of shame are similar, we are just coded by the media and culture we should be ashamed until we get some sort of goal, often pushed by marketing, were cops in the mainstream series have awesome cars and trucks yet in real life they can barely live through.
Exactly, we're so ingrained in it that it never crosses our mind to question whether this is normal or not. Such interesting times we live in.
