What Really is My Worth?


Am I worthy of the worth that I say I have? This question on worth has been swirling in my mouth like being at a vineyard for a good wine tasting. I mean I've never been to one, but that's how I imagine it to be just by watching tv. I can taste the wine swirling on my palate just as I can taste the question posed today. The mere definition of worth means "equivalent in value to the sum or item specified". Am I equivalent in value? If so, the value of what?

As women, well men too, the phrase "know your worth" is spread abroad yet we have nothing to compare our value to. Yes, I have even said those words and to be quite honest I have no damn idea what it truly means in my life. I can only speak for myself. Now there may be some of you reading this that know exactly what your worth is. I'm just not one of them. I mean I know I'm a good person...for the most part. If we're being truly transparent I have some shit I need to work on and through, but that's part of my growth...continued growth. I know that I'm not always making good decisions that will allow me to be my best self emotionally, spiritually or even physically because I'm always trying to do better. I'm human and I make mistakes. Even intentional mistakes in order to preserve my mental health. Does any of that define my worth? If so, just reading this alone pretty much shows my worth is not that great.

Knowing your worth is very different from worthiness. We are worthy of love, respect and appreciation. There is no magic number of value that can be placed on that. Being who you are, asking and expecting those things should be the norm when you're in any "ship" (i.e. relationship, friendship, situationship etc). Just being me is enough to determine my worth. There are no two people quite the same on this earth. Not even identical twins! We all bring extra spice to everyone we encounter. With that said, there's no need to define or even allow anyone else to tell you your value...it's infinite!

So the next time you're questioning your worth...just remember it can't be defined! See you all at the empowerment event! #findyourhappy
