ENTITLED TO BE HUMAN

1/9/2020

What does ‘entitled to be human’ mean? My understanding is that it means we are entitled to think whatever we like about our self or another, entitled to react, entitled to be better or lesser, to be judgemental, entitled to eat whatever the taste buds want even if it may not agree with the body, entitled to drive the body and override its messages – all of this shows us that the human being has a sense of entitlement at the expense of our body and our health.

I wouldn’t have had a clue or the time to find a clue as to what self-entitlement meant when I was younger.

Two words were predominant in the discussion. entitlement and comfort.
