When people appear to be something other than good and decent, it is only because they are reacting to stress, pain, or the deprivation of basic human needs such as security, love, and self-esteem.
A positive self image and healthy self esteem is based on approval, acceptance and recognition from others; but also upon actual accomplishments, achievements and success upon the realistic self confidence which ensues.
No psychological health is possible unless this essential care of the person is fundamentally accepted, loved and respected by others and by himself.
The spiritual life is part of the human essence. It is a defining characteristic of human nature, without which human nature is not fully human.
The most stable, and therefore, the most healthy self-esteem is based on deserved respect from others rather than on external fame or celebrity and unwarranted adulation.
