"Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?"
Jesus replied:
"'Love the Lord your God with all your heart
and with all your soul and with all your mind.'
This is the first and greatest commandment.
And the second is like it:
'Love your neighbor as yourself.'
All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments."
- Matthew 22:36-40

when in reality it is the opposite.

as well as or faults with neutrality,
we can start to appreciate ourselves
as we would a dear friend

we develop true regard for ourselves,
and our life will become sacred.
