Paranoid people see themselves as central figures in a scenario which may be either dangerous (persecutory) or self-exalting (grandiose).
There are two lensmasters who claim they have been dinged by Angels for trivial reasons. One person believes he has been the victim of personal dislike and the other because she has lenses in competition with Angels.
Both of them fit both of the definitions of paranoia.
It’s such a shame to see this misconception. It would be so much easier if these lensmasters created some more work instead of thinking that someone is out to get them. If we all just sat down and made some newer, fresher and better lenses. That’s what I’m going to do. Make some more!
More and more lenses are being made each day, more and more of them jostling to get in the top tier and it becomes harder and harder to keep a place near the top.
BTW. If other lensmasters had any idea of the time that Angels spend each day going though all of the newly published lenses they would faint clean away. I have cut my time to four hours per day. I can’t afford any more, I have a life away from my computer.
But not today! I’m heading back to the salt mines for some fresh ideas to inspire a lens or two.
