“Whoever loves becomes humble. Those who love have, so to speak, pawned a part of their narcissism.” ― Sigmund Freud

Would it be narcissistic to imagine a love story of creation that’s all about Me?

If so, would I be just another personal pronoun?

It it possible that I my Self could care less about Me than Yours truly?

Curiosity regarding I my Self and Me weaves through this creator’s dreams.

In a multi-verse love story created, as it were, of whole cloth, one might dream up infinite answers, perchance to love and deem one good.

Self-awareness is not self-centeredness, and spirituality is not narcissism. ‘Know thyself’ is not a narcissistic pursuit.

Life without love is like a tree without blossoms or fruit.

— Khalil Gibran

Aim at heaven and you will get earth thrown in. Aim at earth and you get neither.

God is really only another artist. He invented the giraffe, the elephant and the cat. He has no real style, He just goes on trying other things.

— Pablo Picasso

The paradox about narcissism is that we all have this streak of egotism. Eighty percent of people think they’re better than average.

— Mark Leary

God is an artist par excellence. He has painted the universe with the colors of His love.

— Swami Ramdas


Yours truly is grateful to your creative Self, for participating in one multi-verse love story of creation; which, I my Self agree, isn’t all about just another personal pronoun.
