RE: Why is it Okay to Be a Little Selfish, Focus on Your Needs and Communicate them to Loved Ones

in #ecotrain6 years ago

Good thoughts. We breathe because we are selfish. We eat, we give, we seek love, we play because we are selfish. Even if we are self sacrificial in some way we desired it iver other options. We have needs that must be met before we can interact in healthy ways with others. The dictionaries of the world sometimes are slanted and incomplete. I think you saw through that into a greater truth. Well done.

Sort:  

You are so right about the dictionaries being slanted and incomplete. The dictionaries define things one way and the context of the words change in real life and that context can be at times suffocating for us. Being selfish for our own needs as long as we aren't harming anyone in the process is not bad at all. Thank you for such a meaningful comment. :) This is exactly what we need to have good conversations and make the community grow.

We shall be friends i think? :) there is a quote by phillip k dick about controlling the definition of words that may be fun. This is the only real currency.

Friends.. hmm.. I'll have to give that a thought. Hahaha.. jk Do buzz me on discord :) I am under the same username.
