>I'm tempted to say that abandoning all hope of improvement is a prerequisite for getting out of those spaces, but then I would.

I've been wondering what I meant by this.
It is something to do with ego and surrender.
I think a lot of suffering stems from our desire.
Maybe the less we want the better we feel?
Young people (like I was) have lots of things about themselves with which they are dissatisfied, and seeking to enforce their desires may lead nowhere.
I suppose I am trying to conceptualise acceptance.
