Greek philosopher Socrates used to say, "Know yourself" because only by knowing the motivations that make you behave the way you do, are you able to carry out any adjustment needed in order to create a more rewarding life. Another famous quote is "Doctor, heal yourself" because, if you don't know how to make yourself better (you don't need to be a real physician, though!), you won't be able to help others. Finally, a piece of advice very suitable to the times we are living in, could be, "Love yourself". Is everybody aware of this necessity? Probably not. Why? Because it seems that nowadays many human beings don't really know how to love and/or how to take good care of themselves. They in fact feed their bodies with 'virtual rubbish', they let themselves be prey of dangerous addictions or harmful feelings. In so doing, they inflict painful wounds to their physical, psychological and spiritual selves. And others will be affected as well.
