About This Quote
We can be redeemed only to the extent to which we see ourselves. This quote speaks about the importance of self-awareness and responsibility. If we don’t take care of our own happiness, we can’t take care of other people’s happiness, either. We need to develop our own skills so that we can be happy and do good things in life. As we become more self-aware and practice self-development, we become more responsible and better able to do things for others and for society as a whole.
