Is it wrong for me to love my own? Is it wicked for me because my skin is red? Because I am Sioux? Because I was born where my father lived? Because I would die for my people and my country?
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I don't feel like millions of people are wrong because they love who they love or they were born how they were born.
You have to choose whether to love yourself or not.
I have a deep love for life and my fellow human beings. I try to understand everything that everybody does, even if it seems wrong to me.
There are reasons to go on living despite what horrors may come in your life. And love informs those reasons.
To live a life that is wrong for you is a form of dying. There are people who have lives that look perfect. They try to be happy, they believe they should be happy, they are trying to like it, but if it's off course from their north star, they aren't satisfied.
If you can learn to love yourself and all the flaws, you can love other people so much better. And that makes you so happy.
As an American, and especially as a Christian, I am convinced that a love for our own people is not a bad thing, but love doesn't stop at borders. Love is infinitely boundless and all about holy trespassing and offensive friendships.
Love is like any other luxury. You have no right to it unless you can afford it.
Love other human beings as you would love yourself.
There's no wrong choice because, whatever you choose, that's meant for you.
