Insecurity is the fertile soil that nurtures mockery. There's a Latin term and a debating technique, reductio ad absurdum; prove one's point by making the other seem ridiculous. Mock someone to cover up our own insecurity and reduce that person to a state of insecurity and so on, ad nauseum. (that's about all the Latin I know).
Thanks for reading and supporting. That is the human condition sadly but doesnt have to be either. Once we become aware we start untangling from mocking each other somewhat
Every place is someone’s world, how true and meaningful. One gets to understand this when one travels especially outside their comfort zone.
We got a glimpse of this when we drove through various places in Australia between different cities and States. It is amazing and humbling to see how people live in places where the facilities are primitive and the resilience they develop in order to survive.
