Pardon the Doom Break for a little bit of divergence into uncharted esoterica.

I’ll start:

My most profound realization was how important and life-changing it is to have proper love for oneself. To ascribe proper worth and value to oneself. It’s liberating. More important still is unconditional love for and loyalty to one’s children, family and bloodline. We are the sole curators of our ancestors’ blood, their epigenetic memories, and the reward for thousands of years of their painful struggle to survive. To experience love for a family of my own was the “missing piece” to my soul and I don’t believe a person can feel complete without serving in that natural role as a Father or parent.

The most truly moving thing that I’ve ever read were the words of Christ, paraphrased:

“For whosoever seeks to save his own soul will lose it; But the man who loses his soul for the sake of good will find it again.”

Also the passage recording Solomon’s commentary on love, as contained in my sigline.
