L.R. KnostTaking care of yourself doesn't mean me first, it means me too.
About This Quote
The idea that you need to take care of yourself or else someone else will be taking care of you can be quite offensive. Take care of yourself doesn't mean me first, it means me too. It's important to prioritize your own needs and happiness against the needs and happiness of others, but there is a clear difference between the two. You should take care of yourself but not at the expense of others.
