My rejection of the world, or vice versa (it doesn’t matter), makes me feel superior. What can I read that will humble me in my loneliness?

I am not happy nor unhappy. I usually felt very depressed but now I just feel like an observer of my emotions.

Bad news, faggot, you are retarded, not superior. When society thinks you're a faggot then you may appear as a faggot. Society is sick, but that doesn't mean its rejection of you is baseless.

Why humble it? Read this if you haven't already, you've made the right choice. Now all that remains is to gather your powers within yourself and CREATE, heedless of what critics say. You've taken what you will from the world, now transform it.

The rejection does matter. I can not intuit your interaction with the world, i can only see the outcome.
And the outcome is a good starting point, you are liberated to go wherever you wish, here comes the problem of rejection.
Rejection is the reaction of your interaction upon this point. Rejection does not need to be part of you. Liberate yourself from this identity, be intreagued by the world and you will find that there is nothing fundamentally true about yourself.
Superiority is a spook.
