Something I learned.

I wish I knew this 2 years ago if not earlier, but don't hate yourself, especially for loving some one that doesn't love you back, or if you're not everything you want to be.

I'm not sure how this works, but I think it's self-pity we should avoid. I think it's self-pity that holds us back from going where/doing what we know we should, and not the self-hatred. I think "self-hatred" is actually your "humility/conscience" looking at yourself and seeing a need for a change. It's only when we mix in prideful self-pity in with "self-hatred" that we stagnate instead of changing what needs to change. "It's too hard". "This is just who/how I am". I can't change". "It's not my fault, it's everyone else with the problem". That's a self-loving "ego" having a pity party:party:. You might be talking about something else...but anyway...just some thoughts. I forgot you were back! Where've you been!?





John 12:25 He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal.

The point I was trying to make is it is if your heart isn't into what you're doing and your spirit is wounded or on life support you will always fail in this competitive world and you won't stand a chance at achieving what you want. If you can't love yourself, how can you expect any one else to? If you don't love yourself, how can you love other people? Rhetorical questions btw. I have no interest in arguing or being judged, which is why I'm not all that interested in staying long.

Well, I can't guarantee that you won't be judged by everybody ( cough, cough, propheticalling, cough, cough), but I can definitely say that your contributions will be much appreciated by the vast majority of the people here.

Regarding your actual post, self acceptance comes through knowing Christ acceptance You can't be happy without either because they go hand in hand.

Well, I'll stick around. I'm having a hard time seeing what the point is, but I'll stick around and see what happens.

I just think self-hatred gets a bad rap sometimes. I do think you should stay, if only to steel yourself against people judging you. It's gonna happen. Maybe we should start a "young guy" thing! I've always wondered if it would be creepy to look for dude friends on dating sites, lol...
