Loving yourself should come first, but there are some that love others before themselves. IMO...can you really love another if you don't love yourself?

if you love yourself before you love others, then all you will be doing is loving yourself...

I love myself I want you to love me When I'm feelin' down I want you above me I search myself I want you to find me I forget myself I want you to remind me Chorus: I don't want anybody else When I think about you I touch myself I don't want anybody else Oh no, oh no, oh no You're the one who makes me come running You're the sun who makes me shine When you're around I'm always laughing I want to make you mine I close my eyes And see you before me Think I would die If you were to ignore me A fool could see Just how much I adore you I get down on my knees I'd do anything for you Chorus I love myself I want you to love me When I'm feelin' down I want you above me I search myself I want you to find me I forget myself I want you to remind me Chorus I want you I don't want anybody else And when I think about you I touch myself Ooh, oooh, oooooh, aaaaaah I, I, I, I, I don't want anybody else When I think about you I touch myself Oh I don't want anybody else When I think about you I touch myself I touch myself (7x) I honestly do I touch myself (3x) I honestly do I touch myself...

I really love this topic so I'm going to elaborate, if I may. The saying, "Put others before yourself" requires a lot of responsibility. It may also take self confidence, and bravery, in order to put the needs of others before your own. Then again, it matter to what extent you'll love others before yourself. Will you be willing to spare personal time for them, or even die for them? That confidence is also love for self. Therefore the amount in which you love someone else is very conclusive to how much you love yourself. Yes...that was your mind being blown. Enjoy.

So the fire was AFTER their roof destroyed your car? Wow...that was very big of you. Definitely commendable. Not a lot of people like you left in the world these days. I, too, would have made the same decision. I believe it's important to humble myself before others and think about their needs before my own. This type of servant's heart is also the best way to profit in life. To give is an opportunity to receive.
