    I don't much believe in the colloquialism of loving yourself. This type of thing is expressed as a poetic device with no real weight in semantic validity. It would be like a coach telling his player to compete with himself, or like a good friend encouraging you to be yourself. We all know what is meant by sentiments, however if a person were to truly compete with himself, he would have to occupy the space of winner and loser simultaneously which would be absurd. Authenticity is not an option. You must be yourself at all times. Even in pretense, one is truly expressing the contortions of insecurity. That is not an act. Embarrassment and social retreat are real things.

    It is in this similar vein that I see self love. I understand that the encouragement about not being harsh to yourself. However there is harshness in love. Love is not perpetually gentle. Even still the greater point is that love flows outward. It is a modality of giving. The lover gives of his time, provisions, counsel, body, comfort, trust, and forgiveness when needed. Any act done for the self is receiving, which is not evil by any means, but does not satisfy the demand of love. Let me be clear. I am not entering into the whole selfless debate. It is correct that no act is every 100 percent selfless. Okay fine, but giving is a separate issue as pure practice. Prolonged loneliness is the depravation of love no matter how well rehearsed one's recitations of exalted individualism. Self-affirmation is nothing short of priming the psych for socialization. You tell yourself you are good enough, strong enough, and worth while to lather up the courage to forge relationships.

    In this same sense self-hatred is a farce. The one doing the hating is always divided against a particular facet of your being. You may hate your weight, sex, height, class etc. However the thing which scrutinizes is beyond reproach. As soon as you look at it, that very act creates another schism. You are now looking at the observer, which makes the observer the object. When in fact you just split your faculty of observation in half. The observing eye can never hold any contaminant because it is not being beheld.

    Something is HORRIBLY wrong. with the audio in this upload 😐
    1:53 should not sound like that, somehow only one section of Tori's backup vocals are amped up.
    And the whole thing has a low pass filter over it so you can't hear any of the cymbals for instance.
