Beauty is not unattainability, beauty is a reflection of a feeling from the inside

the distancing mechanism employed by feeling contemptuous towards humanity is a protective measure from trauma

i use trauma in this context in a more physical sense, Not capital T Trauma, but little t trauma like a physical cut, it is severance from fullness.
contempt is a defensive contraction

A cut needs a scab; living inside the scab is what causes rigidity and numbness.
In medicine, we don’t just rip scabs off—we debride wounds selectively, under controlled conditions, to restore circulation and allow clean tissue to close.

@childrencylinder such an effective analogy😻
I feel like i just learned something new too, I'm off to look into the debride process 🖤

@childrencylinder hmmm better left to the professionals they say, still fascinating & better than the sloppy version of scab ripping tho👀

@rebelkatt I think in like a non metaphorical sense it’s like the truth of our own individual nature doesn’t have to be ripped off to be revealed to us,
we have cradles like therapy to open up carefully in. Or if not therapy other gentle methods
