Thanks Byz.......you hit on something with that. I have instinctively reached some data to do with "inner love"(very simplistic way of stating it, sorry..couldn't think of better words).......is it with "inner love" that one loves others? And how does it translate to others? Does love get overshadowed by logic? Is love of self a leap of faith? Many questions

I understand the concept of self love intrinsically, but I still struggle to "feel" it. Maybe it is my lack of self-esteem.

Spiritual Emergency, by your *sigh* in your post, did you want to reflect fustration with my thread, or something else. You "sounded" hurt. And is that chakra that you speak of located in the solar plexus? If it is I will get chills, for you are not the first person to have brought it up....

Thank you both for your valuable input
