Why Narcissism?
As strange and empty as narcissism can be, why is anyone ever a narcissist? What would lead someone to that attitude? Over blown success? We need to make up a story to rationalize the success? Let’s hypothesize for a moment, look at things from a theoretical, completely objective point of view. Looked at objectively, what…

What is Narcissism?
First a question to establish agreement of terms. What is narcissism? Self absorption. A condition in which someone exaggerates their own value, though I think underneath they are insecure.

Reclaiming Personal Intention
So even just based on this talk, it seems to illustrate how challenging reclaiming personal intention would be for us even as small groups let alone world wide. Does it not? Yes.

Did the hippy revolution change anything? We still hear the same old meaningless rhetoric. There are ‘the power of now’ thumpers. They just switched the book.
