I was talking to my new therapist about my incredibly low self--worth. I am constantly striving to be worthy. When things go badly I feel it has been because I am unworthy. When things are good in my life I feel unworthy and expect it to come crashing down. Of course, we talked at great length about that. When she asked me what I consider worthy in a person we discovered what I really am considering worthy is actually a sense of value tied to accomplishment. This was all quite novel to me. An epiphany of sorts. I need to completely rethink my sense of worth.
Have you fallen into the same trap?
Thinking about it, what makes you worthwhile?
I am worthwhile because of my generosity.
I am worthwhile because I believe in equality......
