From a neuroscience perspective, the object I love, devote myself to, and sacrifice for is an ‘extension of myself.’ The brain is inherently selfish. Selfishness is a necessary emotion and attitude for survival. Only when I exist can others exist. Yet, we often see people making sacrifices for others. How can I love someone other than myself? What I dedicate and sacrifice for someone is what my brain perceives as an ‘extended me.’ Ultimately, loving others is an extension of loving myself. Therefore, self-love becomes a foundation and a tool for loving others. If ‘self-love’ is healthy, then loving others is healthy too. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Treating relationships between people is the world's hardest and most difficult thing. Most hard work mentally means feeling some troubles in the relationship among the people. If you feel so tired from your ordinary life, go deep inside of your mind to find the stresses from the people out, then you should take a rest enough. A rest gives us the power to stand for passing our lifetimes by, not to move the stresses themselves out. After all, time is medicine. - Joseph's "j ust my thoughts"
