i don’t like the term “self-love”

for me self-respect is more important than so called self-love. because love is often blind, but self-respect is based straight up on our actions and its outcomes, actions that include discipline, hard work, a constant battle with our own character

“people with self-respect exhibit a certain toughness, a kind of moral nerve; they display what was once called character..”

just one long, honest, meaningful conversation here will fix me
