Right now I feel like every thing I say and feel, everything I do is just an extension of my self-importance. I feel bad just writting this. And then theirs this other part of my that's laughing at myself. I'm so pathetic.

I think those feelings are unavoidable. We have to watch these feelings come and go without becoming affected by them. This is what being detatched means.
It's easier said than done.
