This quote hit home with how I can be very selfish. It really made me check my motives.

"If you love someone because they always try to please you, because they do only what you want him to do, that is not love. That is just a round-about way of loving yourself."

interesting. isn't that what a servant/master relationship would be?

You love your slave/servant only because they....obey?

obedience is what i've been taught, not necessarily from my mom, but from the church. i feel if i do nothing then i am lost as a human being. learning how to let myself be loved first, hmmm that's a hard one and the pursuit of that love, is what's even more difficult, but more liberating.
