My life is a chain of success

I haven't always thought that. In fact, I was a little self critical and abusive to myself. (As an excuse, I really thought it was "self-discipline"). Being also religious, the first half hour of my Morning Prayer goes through all the sins you can imagine...some of them implied...And I'm not saying that that is it for the morning prayer...after all, it can be modified...But to emphasize on something I haven't noticed before, there is this culture of guilt, a guilt that cannot be very healthy to one's self esteem! Feng shui brought me to this realization, and meditation that I have been practicing for the past month has helped. (recommended reading: Luise Hey) Why should we feel guilty just for wanting to be happy? A happy individual, one that truly loves him/or herself, will not abuse others. It is the weak and those who cannot accept themselves for who they are, are people prone to tyranny and degrading of others. Holy Bible says: " Love others as you love yourself". Think about it, how can you love others if you don't love yourself? Shouldn't there be seminars on how to love yourself first? How to accept your every action, put a stop to self critisizm(it is not "healthy"), and change it to understanding and loving attitude towards your best friend -- you! Giving yourself "motherly support", if you will --or, for those, whose mothers were also critical and not as supportive as you wished, a support of a loving partner.
