Worth

Posted by The Red Devil on Wednesday, September 26, 2007 in ,
How are we measured for our worth? Is it the way we perceive life? Is it the way we raise our children? Or, is it the way we measure ourselves?

The transference of knowledge from a book, an experience or a person can definitely be beneficial. However, I don't want that transference of knowledge. I can do that on my own. I want epiphanies - the kind of realization that knocks you out cold.

They say that epiphanies happen when you look at something from a different perspective. From that epiphany, you actually raise your IQ by 80 points. Something to think about right there. Looking at the benefits of seeing things in a different light, why is there such a fuss resisting it?

I've been asking people I work with, people I was involved with - platonic and romantic, people I meet at a level completely different from the two aforementioned; about my worth to them. I ask bosses what my worth is to his team. I've asked friends what my worth is to them, and I've asked boyfriends, girlfriends and my husband what my worth is. The epiphany here is that, I don't need them to know my worth. I know what I'm worth.

True, it may sound so anti-climactic and cliche-ish even. But you'll never know how powerful an epiphany this is if you've never been through it yourself. It's like childbirth - you can never see your mother at a different angle until you've become one yourself.

Suddenly. the world's beautiful again.
