I bring you this stately matron named Christendom, returning bedraggled, besmirched, and dishonored from pirate raids in Kiao-Chow, Manchuria, South Africa, and the Phillipines, with her soul full of meanness, her pocket full of boodle, and her mouth full of pious hypocrisies. Give her soap and a towel, but hide the looking-glass.


Mark Twain

I would say: "Loving others is "easier" when you love and accept yourself, (whatever is meant by "accepting yourself"?), but it is wrong to suggest those with low self-esteem dont/cant love others"!

In fact its a quite unnecessary, and maybe even pernicious charge to lay against those having a hard time in life too!

I am someone that does not need or want huge crowds. I live my life my way and I make every effort
to respect others in their choice. Live and let live works very well for me. Short and sweet..

You've summed that up well, and I'm pleased to say my views on love were echoed in a BBC radio show yesterday concerning St Valentines day, (someone putting forward the view in the poster I objected to, then the consensus of opinions in the group of experts or religious leaders being against them, I'm very pleased to report!).

When there are calls for "equality" in some areas of life, such as giving birth to a child, where "one parent does all the heavy lifting" you'd have to say., there is a question to be asked. If there is a negative aspect to equality, it is that's easy to ignore or fail to recognise, that it is the "differences" between the parents that the child needs, and deserves, so they are given two perspectives, not just one.
