SELF LOVE VS EGOISM
When does self love stop being healing… and start being ego?
There’s a fine line.
Self love and egoism can look similar from the outside, but they come from completely different places.
Self love is taking care of yourself without harming others. It’s grounded, quiet and confident.
You don’t have to be better than anyone, except your past self.
Egoism is self involvement that blinds you to others feelings and realities. It comes from insecurity, comparison and the need to be superior.
Self love turns into egoism when self protection becomes self priority at the expense of empathy.
Real self love never needs to put anyone else down. Ego does.
