Familarity leads to Contempt..

Recently i was came across this adage that Familarity leads to Contempt. I gave a thought to it and then realised that how true it was meant to be. All my life we have follow the fears and try and overcome them in pursuit of knowing more about ourselves and knowing more about world and its ways. This pursuit leads us to develop a logic and reason out everything. After a life long Pursuit in the end what are we supposed to get. The complete truth about ourselves i guess. But is that the truth we wanted. Familarity leads to contempt is what we started with so do we really want to get familiar with ourselves is the pursuit we should be after.. The more we know a thing or a person for that matter the more we are supposed to dislike him. So the logic says the more we know ourselves the more we dislike ourselves.
So the whole idea of introspection fails here cause the point above defies the logic behind it. The idea of taking a SWOT for ourselves fails here. may be people do it for improving on their weaknesses but some things in life never change. and if at all we really want to change ourselves we are not being true to our absolute inner self and we are living a fake life. and as goes the adage 'Your any Obligation in any lifetime is to be true to urself. Being true to anyone else or anything else is not only impossible but also the sign of a fake messiah'..
