Living the Golden Rule is the sign of a positive high self-esteem: "Do unto others as you would wish you to do." (The Bible)
The Golden Rule is all about love. The love of self and love for other people. But how can we truly follow the Golden Rule, if we love ourselves? Well, the truth is that it would be extremely difficult. If people were treated like dirt then what would keep them from treating other people the same way? If they do not respecteven as they may, in relation to point to other people?
I think self-esteem and obedience is the key to living the Golden Rule. Self-respect, because we all have to learn to love and believe in us. Obedience, because we all need to order Jesus' commands, how to obey man to love, including ourselves. Jesus said "Love your enemies." He also said: "Love your neighbor as yourself". Unfortunately, many people have one enemy with themself. They must be people in this situationbe obedient to God forces himself to love. Simply beautiful for you. Most of us know how to be nice to strangers. We must treat ourselves the same way. In time you will begin to love yourself and your neighbor as yourself. "
We can find out by a cute story about a six-year-old and her four year old brother. One day, these two children had a quarrel. It was not long, the two children began to beat. The mother ran into the room and shouted: "Children, youStop that this moment! Be nice to each other! Have you ever heard of the Golden Rule? "
The six-year-old mother looked at her and exclaimed: "Yes, Mom, but he did it to me first."
Yes, we have to do to no other, but where this child her mistake was made that they do not understand what we do for anything else. What we do is love. The Golden Rule is love. The love of God, to ourselves and other people. If we simply love, then we are meeting the Golden Rule.
