“Self-loathing is a terrible affliction born out of the false perception that we are our thoughts. It divides each of us into two people rather than being one whole complete person. This illusion falsely implies you can love or hate yourself, but in reality, you can't have a relationship with yourself. You simply are you. A relationship with yourself can only happen if you believe you are split in two. By recognizing your one true self, all self-loathing ceases to be.”
