I used to wonder about my worth, big time.
Then, someone else outside of me challenged my worth.
(my usefulness, my intelligence, my fortitude, my integrity, my relevance)
I had to dig deep and answer for myself, and by myself,
if I embodied those qualities or not.
Turns out... I did & I do - in all aspects.
And then I wondered if I needed to be all of those things,
all of the time, to be worth "it".
(someone else's time, respect, consideration).
Turns out... No - I don't.
Now it's about me & only me,
and it's not about me at all.
It's about:
Is "it"
(connection, communion, intimacy with my god, my goodness, my highest self)
"worth it"
(the effort, the risk, the vulnerability, the time, the energy)
?
...Turns out... Yes.
Yes, it is.
Every. Single. Time.
