What Does Self-Love Mean?

Love must be truly universal. And self-love is about showing the same understanding and compassion for oneself. You learn to accept your flaws, nurture your qualities and respect yourself for what you are. 

But then self-love is not about being selfish. Your love for yourself makes you complete. And confident in your abilities. You acquire the courage to confront the demons that assail you. You attain self-assurance to identify things that trouble and restrain you. And finally, you gain the courage and the necessity to exercise your inner-demons. It helps you to do the things that are best for you. And make the right decisions.

Every step you take for your well-being serves to benefit everyone around you. A person who professes self-love is conscious that he can hurt himself by hurting others. It is never egotism or narcissism. But is an opposing term.
