It wasn't until I was 20, feeling down and out, that I realized something important. Self Worth Matters. I had spent so many days drawing my worth from others wasting my time for 20 years. Life does not offer a guarantee that everyone we encounter will stay. The only one we live with forever, is ourselves. I realize now that I shouldn't have spent all that time all of those years putting my happiness into other people's pockets. Happiness comes from within, not without. Never forget it.
