The Art Of Including Ourselves 2.0

Premasudha tells a story about 10 men crossing a river to highlight our difficulty including ourselves in the equation of life.

Just as the men kept forgetting to count themselves, and ended up thinking someone must have drowned, we often fail to consider (or count) our own dear selves.

We treat ourselves like objects or mere functional units rather than full human beings with needs and dreams and feelings and a perspective all our own.

Our lives become happier and more meaningful as we turn to love and honour our own selves.
