00:00Making yourself happy is not at all an example of loving yourself.
00:06Love does not bother for happiness.
00:08Love bothers for rightness, for elevation.
00:11When you help someone else's life take a beautiful shape, then you are loving the other.
00:17When you help your own life turn beautiful, then you are loving yourself.
00:24Real love is an exercise in reduction, not further accumulation.
00:30Therefore be it love towards somebody else or love towards oneself.
00:37Real love is always tough.
00:39False love is very lucrative, very charming, oh there is such a romance around it.
00:44But then that romance is hardly love.
00:47Real love tests, real love stretches, breaks.
00:51Real love is like a sculptor carving a beautiful one out of an unseemly rock.
