And the key distinction, is to notice that desire is actually motivated by fear, by implicit lack. Love on the other hand, is not motivated by anything but itself, and it sustains itself eternally, because Love is the Truth of Reality and who we really are.
What is the difference between loving myself, and loving others?


Looking at what you write, you are obviously biased twoards love, but you arn't on a level where you see both pathways as equally valid. I don't know if I am, but I have glimpsed it, and I can see how both pathways, service to self, and service to others, can benefit everyone, including yourself.

Well thats my opinion anyway.
