Meaning
This points to self-love not as vanity, but as a condition for becoming more whole. It can be read as a hopeful suggestion that healing begins when people treat themselves with enough care to stop reproducing harm inwardly. It lands in moments of burnout or shame, when compassion toward oneself is the first small step back toward steadiness.
