Liking and loving yourself

by Frank DeFranco Jr.

I'm sure Hitler, Stalin, George Bush and Osama bin Ladin all liked if not loved themselves. It seems to me that some people, and I gladly include myself in this category, are well worth disliking, even hating, and that sometimes when the whole world shuns you and tells you that you're worthless (be it through it's actions or communications towards you) that the world is right and you're not worth liking.

The four examples above should be adequate proof that liking/loving/approving of yourself is not always the right/real/or best attitude. Think how different the world would be if the people above thought less of themselves.

Just a small bone to chew on from a small and hateful man. But I never claimed to like myself so don't feel bad if you don't like me either. On this I know we all can agree.
