Spiritual Chill Pill#008: When The Hardest Person To Love Is YourselfThere is a lot of talk about self-love out there, but the concept still feels foreign to many people. What does loving yourself mean? Sometimes it's easy to confuse self-indulgence with self-love. We allow ourselves to carry on behaviors just because "they feel good" instead of analyzing if they are right for us. We are critical of ourselves to an extent we would never be to others. We care for other people, but we don't take care of ourselves. We put ourselves last. That's how we become the hardest person to love in our lives.
