Digger asks:

“Do you love yourself?

“What is it to love yourself?” (1)

And I’m at the back of the class, waving my hand in the air. “Ask me, teach. Ask me.”

For me, it means something very particular.

Before I knew what love was (prior to 2015), if you’d have said to me, love yourself, I’d have been stumped.

I’d wonder if loving myself required doing anything. I’d approach it very logically, like preparing for summer camp. I’d make a list of things I need to do to love myself.

Change my diet. Exercise. Get more sleep.
