But, if we asked anyone "who are we?" or "what are we?", many will falter over the questions. If we fully unwrapped ourselves before the mirror, and look beyond our physique, we will be looking right into our core being, our soul.
We have our values; dignity; principles of rights and wrongs; our beliefs; our cultures; our religion; our languages; our habits; etc. The list can go on. What do we call these descriptions? It's our self worth - our true self that has been cultivated since our birth together with our family; society; culture and country origin. Like a mold, we learn and grow day by day, so is our self worth.
Over the course of our life, we encounter people; events and situations that we may or may not be in control. Some decisions we made will bring us success and happiness, while others bring us sorrows and pains. Nevertheless, it is our deliberate choice.
We want to look good and positive in the mirror despite setbacks or failures. Because our self worth holds us in proudness, without it our body is like a walking dead. For some people, they think self worth had vanished along with their failures. They have forgotten that self worth of a true self is always lie within the core of them. It is just being hidden away by the heavy burdens of sorrows and pains. All it needs is to be awakened again by its host. As we human beings are survival animals, our self worth values will raise us up to fight and triumphed over the tribulations yet again.
It just depends if the host is able to rise up to face the challenges. We will be nothing if we lose our true self worth like the dead or from unsound mind. But if we are breathing and walking, so why we give up our life and our self worth to the animosity without a good reasoning and fight? That will be seen a wasted master piece to God's handiwork when He gives us life and values of a human being.
Like the picture of a lady beetle crawling so steadily on the branch, it does not falter even when the winds blow. Even it falls to the ground, it just keep on climbing back to the tree branch. So small and fragile the beetle is, yet it is so strong in its instinctive survival sense.
Therefore, can we call upon all those people with broken disappointment to stand up proud like the lady beetle and armed up their true self again? Nothing beats the feeling of seeing our true self emerging once more and embracing it like loving every moment of life!
May all people love thy self always.
