This chapter in particular left me with a lot of thoughts. Being someone who has struggled with self-love, I have always thought the journey of self-love required isolation in order to get to "know myself". I often wondered why even in isolation, I struggled to find that self-love that I was so eagerly yarning for. This chapter and bell hooks discussion of the pillars of self-love allowed me to dissect my personal self-love journey in a way I haven't before. I am grateful.
