Narcissism (ARTICLES)


Most human beings wouldn’t bother to listen to others unless, they are the topic themselves or at least, they’re a part of it. Simple as that.  People are so in-love with themselves that they totally forget the needs of others at times. 

Well of course, nowadays, we are so oriented with humanitarian concern that’s why the need to think about others but basically, man is so obsessed about himself. 

First, the looks.  There is always a need for the approval of others. It seems that we really need to look our best, smell our best, and present ourselves as the best commodity that others can pick, whether it’s for personal, social, career, or for other reasons, but the thing is, we really need to be convinced that indeed, we look our best.  I don’t know what it is with people that they always have to be reassured of their looks.  But as far as I’m concerned, this is human nature.  It has come to be abused when cellular phones mutated to the ones having cameras, which gave birth to the term “selfe”.

I fought too hard to not take selfies anymore.  At least for a certain length of years because I noticed that it made me something different.

I mean, if we know our value as a human being, why would there be a need for us to constantly assure ourselves that we still look great. 


I honestly believe that if we value ourselves high enough for others to emulate, and we feel secure at the thought of ourselves being of high value, then, why do we even have to doubt our looks? Looking great is a part of human routine, far as I know.  But the need to constantly be reassured of your looks is certainly not mentally healthy.
