The Attention Scam

Jul 19, 2003 10:33

Why do beings crave being noticed, watched, listened to? Why is it so important to be in the spotlight? The way people dress. The way they talk. Hobbies they partake in only to be able to brag about later on. I was with someone last night that didn't stop talking. And her words were not of importance. And you HAD to listen. Otherwise she would snap at you for it.
Acceptance. We all need it. or feel like we do. From our parents, peers, lovers, strangers. And obviously this is due to non-acceptance of self. So that brings me to my next question--why can't we come to terms with ourselves? IS it that we know ourselves to well and are believe that what you know of yourself is too shameful to be accepted? ...i have to go--i will add later.
