Q

There are outer and inner cheerfulness. What does it mean?

A

Cheerfulness is an ordinary setting for love and being loved. It is also true on the inside. We suppose to love others as we love ourselves. Being good to others but bad for yourself is unsustainable in the long run. However, some people are cheerful on the outer side, but they are sincerely, deeply unhappy inside, lead by the “Fake it till you make it” principle.

Q

Is loving ourself and being compassionate toward ourselves is overindulgent?

A

No! Everyone should love and care about themselves. People tend to fear about overindulgence tho. Some people very critique themselves; however, it does not benefit them. Moreover, threatening anyone as the double down does not work at all. On the contrary, everyone should build a rapport with the inner child, and treat and understand him. Loving breath greeting, total attention, warm caring.
