Self-Delusion
We all know some pretty ridiculously self-delusional types, but I like the idea that it’s a necessary evil, in the strict ontological sense that a being simply cannot know itself, like the architectural flaw of the eye that cannot see itself. Theory goes that without it we’d all realize we were pathetic mediocre slobs full of faults, possibly even terrible people, incapable of change, etc. Then we’d all just give up and kill ourselves. But there is something fascinating about this blind spot.
