I am a Baumanist!


Brief encounter

I love someone, she must have deserved it in some way.

Self-love prompts us to ‘‘stick to life’’, to try hard to stay alive for better or worse, to resist and fight back against whatever may threaten the premature or abrupt termination of life, and to protect, or better still beef up our fitness and vigour to make that resistance effective.

Self-love can prod us to reject a life that is not up to our love’s standards and therefore unworthy of living.
