This. Something might just be a phase, but that doesn’t mean you won’t learn valuable things both about yourself and the world in general through it.
“If you persistently seek validation from others, you will inadvertently invalidate your own self-worth.”
— Dodinsky
(via purplebuddhaquotes)
whether you were productive today, whether all you ate was junk food, whether you couldn’t get out of bed. Your value is the same, there is no point system that you judge yourself on, your value doesn’t change depending on whether you ate a salad or a pie. Your worth remains constant. All you can try and do at the end of the day is be a good person, that’s all anyone asks of you. Be a good person whether that means telling someone they’re beautiful, opening a door for someone, giving some food to the homeless person on your street or staying in bed today because you know you need rest. Just try your best and know that no matter what, you have value as a person and though they may try, no one can take that away from you.
