Someone said the scarcest form of love is self love and i agree. We tend to love others first and ourselves last.  The greatest commandment given to us by that Great Rabbi of all times Christ Himself hinges on self love, it says after loving God with all your heart and all, then you are to LOVE your NEIGHBOUR AS YOURSELF. This means giving your neighbor the same kind of love you can give to yourself . This goes to show that you can only truly love others from the springs and depths of self love you possess. In other words, you cannot effectively love others when you haven't loved yourself enough. And what does it mean to love yourself? It just means a healthy view and appreciation of the totality of who you are. You see yourself as a valuable person and a source of blessing go others and not neccessarily needing another human being to make you feel that way or help give you your worth. This self love essentially stems from a deep relationship with your Creator

Poverty especially of material possession and the means to provide the basic necessities of life continues to be a social problem that is as old as man. The concept of wealth, abundance and surplus remains an illusion to so many people. Till today we have people asking questions like, ' why are some rich and some poor?' Could it be a predetermined fate or is there really something responsible for making one wealthy and what exactly is that thing and how can it be gotten or attained? Is it possible to move from the depth of perpetual lack and insufficiency to abundance and surplus? Well to begin with, wealth and poverty begin as concepts that are taught and to which the mind adheres to. If one is exposed to the possibility of being wealthy, that individual's mind picks that information and creates a belief system out of it that eventually determines the actions the person take which will ultimately lead him to wealth and abundance and so also it is for the poor.
