What is it with self esteem ?

Why is it that the people that are smart, good looking and complex ...have a low self esteem ?

In a world where everybody is frustrated and needing more and more from themselves is self esteem a problem that just got out of control ?

I have so many wonderful friends, people that I admire, people that I love, people that are beautiful inside and out and that I am proud to call friends that have the biggest insecurities ..over themselves and life.
I know so many of them that show a high self esteem...even arrogance ...but when you look behind their shells and look inside ...they are so afraid...and so insecure.

Being afraid to open, being afraid to suffer, or to loose. Some are afraid that their true self is not enough, afraid to be judged or criticized. Feeling that they might be taken for fools if they show emotions ...that being sensitive is wrong.

What do we need in order to have a healthy self esteem ?
