Do emotionally mature people experience what is known as self love?
Yes, emotionally mature people who understand the meaning of true love may experience what is known as self-love. But what is self-love? Love for oneself, self-respect, appreciating this Divine existence is true self-love. Inflating one’s ego is not self-love; self-love is not being greedy and satisfying one's needs - that is not true self-love. Therefore if one wants a truly mature understanding of self-love, one must understand that love is a fountain of joy. It is white Divine love that is Soulful love that manifests as the seven colors of the rainbow. Right from the time we are born, there is love for our parents, our friends, emotional love, intellectual love, self-love, and finally romantic love. But the world thinks of Valentine’s , hugs, kisses as love when it just one of the colors of the rainbow of love.
