Self-love is not afraid of difficulties

Few people think that the criteria for loving someone else are also valid for loving yourself.
Am I willing to love myself in failure? Or do I only want to deal with the victorious self, and let the defeated grieve behind that shed?
Do I take care of myself in illness? Or should I serve myself a biorobot optimized and flavored?
Do I keep myself weak or vulnerable? Or do I reject and start stripping?
Am I capable of seeing in myself true beauty, kindness, all sorts of good qualities? Or am I not worthy of a warm look?
How many chances do I give myself? Am I not merciless at my first mistake? Is he not ruthless in the second, when he supposedly had to do the right thing because he spared himself the first time?
Can I hear myself? Ask? Listen?
Do I accept myself differently? Do I realize that I can’t give a clear answer to some questions?
Do I respect myself as a reasonable person? Do I prefer to practice my virtues rather than criticize my flaws?
Do I respect myself simply as a living being with an inherent experience? Do I prefer to touch my strong feelings, even if it is anger or envy? Or do I want someone who can be quietly putrid without fear of protest?
These questions are useful to ask yourself from time to time. Love yourselfLike all love, it is incompatible with consumerism, authoritarianism, and violence. The trick is that we can allow these things to happen just like we can in love with another. But, unlike another, which is not long to lose, a person is always able to give himself another try.
