Self love, Self care, Self esteem, self preservation.
You can't pour out of an empty cup mantra
And while I wholly agree with all of that, but have we tipped the balance? Just like we do with everything?
When it comes to relationships
[ friendships-love-family-work etc]
it all takes compromise.
My question is ;
Where is Compromise in this new Self Love era?
Where is Sacrifice?
Where is Forgiveness?
Is this why relationships/marriages are no longer working in this self-love climate? Where your self love supersedes the needs of your union?

I'm just reflecting on my observations and trying to figure out where the balance lies.
Because at the end of the day,
no man is an island,
we need each other,
we were built for relationships in all its forms.
