About Jake Hen

About What's greater than love of the world? Love of the self, which can be volatile. If you love yourself too much, you could, and I quote, "...get sucked up in your own asshole..."(Anonymous). If you don't love yourself enough, which many people don't, it could lead to destructive behaviors, similar in nature but not alike at all to the previous example. It takes mental fortitude to love one's self and still be critical of who they are and improve upon their faults, while still being aware that their faults will always exist.
So what is the point?
There is no point, there is only striving to achieve an unattainable goal, so that maybe the brevity of our existence is a little less meaningless than it already is.
