I heard a song by the pop artist Pink entitled Glitter in the Air.  One of the lines says, “Have you ever hatted yourself for staring at the phone? Your whole life waiting on the ring to prove your not alone.”  Using the world around us to indicate our own value will only work when we poses something that the world wants.  When that resource has been exhausted, our value will also be exhausted.  it makes no difference what we feel when the world makes the discussion on our worth. 

Make your value, your value…dicide for yourself what it is that makes you valuable, and never forget it.
