here are 3 questions of worth.
Is it better to be praised for what you have done or to be considered for what you can do.
Is it better to be assisted in what you are doing or be undetected so as to act without interference.
Is it better to be happy under false pretenses and not know your true misery, or to be miserable from knowing your true happiness.
I say it is better to be seen for ones potential rather than judged by what you have done in the past or who you were then.
I say it is better to pleasantly surprise people and do so freely than to have people give with expectations set in stone or give finite disappointments.
I would rather cry laughing than smile bitterly.
you?

It is better to do what you must do, regardless of the situation. Sometimes you may require assistance, and there is nothing wrong with that.

So, then I will ask you, Bihotz: When are you worthy to yourself?
Do you ever feel like you are good enough?
If so, when?
If not, what prevents it?
If we are always measuring our worth by the perspectives and achievements of others, we are blinded to that which we should already know: We are worth just as much as everyone else.
You, Bihotz, are worthy.

To do so freely you will understand that the answer to the question which lies beneath is the cause of only more suffering. Come to the foreground, let your heart be troubled and create the mess. Life never has been so fruitfull.
What was life more than just a pile of sh*t. Cross your arms and behold. The fruit of death? Intertwined with life is.
Crazy compass.
