The poem says it all. It shows or tells us that the poetess would rather have courage throughout her life than have attachments ofn this world. She makes it clear that she wants to have a chainless soul which is not Materialistic in nature, with all the Freedom and hapiness beyond this worldliness. Riches I hold in light esteem Riches I hold in light esteem

And Love I laugh to scorn

And lust of Fame was but a dream

That vanished with the morn-

And if I pray, the only prayer

That moves my lips for me

Is-"Leave the heart that now I bear

And give me liberty."

Yes, as my swift days near their goal

'Tis all that I implore

Through life and death, a chainless soul

With courage to endure!

Emile Bronte March 1, 1841

Is self esteem the same as self respect?

No. Self respect is clearly respecting yourself, being kind to yourself, loving yourself and taking care of yourself. Self esteem is how you feel about yourself. For example: if you have low self esteem you don't really think you're pretty or attractive, you might not dress very nicely and you think you're ugly. You can have no self esteem but still have self respect by not harming yourself, etc...
