Thank you Ms. Smith. This was incredibly illuminating and helped me understand Objectivism at a deeper level. Wonderful.

Remember folks Rand's audience is the sound mind. I listen with a.. psychoanalytic.. overlay, if you will.. and Tara Smith implicitly includes qualifiers for pride. That.. the self have, self regard in the first place, as opposed to, what we'd call identity diffusion, if you will. Such is very important in the integration of pride.

At what point do I cease to exist, and at what point do I know that I am? Can there ever be answers to questions that falter? To be is to be that can never be altered. Empty your mind for clarity of view the absence of thought is not the absence of you. We come not out of the world, nor whither away. If all is oneself where does one stray?
