Self-Love
Perhaps one of the most important yet often neglected forms of love is self-love. Loving oneself means embracing both strengths and flaws, setting boundaries, and prioritizing well-being. It is not about arrogance but about recognizing one’s worth and treating oneself with kindness and respect.
Self-love is not just about indulging in luxury or treating oneself occasionally. It is about:
•Accepting Yourself: Embracing both strengths and flaws without constant self-criticism.
•Setting Boundaries: Knowing when to say no and prioritizing mental and emotional well-being.
•Practicing Self-Care: Taking care of your body, mind, and soul through healthy habits.
•Forgiving Yourself: Letting go of past mistakes and understanding that growth comes from imperfection.
•Believing in Your Worth: Valuing yourself regardless of societal expectations or external validations.

Rachel Reviews: The Spiral Archive by Pieter Hendrik
It's difficult for me to know where to start with a review of this book as it was, for me, an entirely unique experience and one that I'll probably never have again. I don't want that to be interpreted as unenjoyable but it has left me scratching my head a little and ruminating on its content, its themes and its characters.

I think, in many ways, the tiktok-afication of this term has pulled it away from what it actually means and is often used as a synonym for an unlikeable narrator.
