No one puts value into my words but myself.
Every word I write is another gold coin.
Right now I am the richest woman in the world.
Not a soul can take that wealth away from me.
I won’t waste the value on petty squabbles.
I won’t devalue them to make myself small so
another can feel tall.
I used to give away all my riches to the wrong
people.
I used to underestimate the value I wielded with
my sharp tongue or the words I wrote in the darkness.
I then became undone only to be forged into someone worthy of my wealth.

Self knowledge and self worth are the finest gifts one can have. To have fought life's battles and finally realise these gifts is to know their true value.
Speak your mind in your chosen words not those regurgitated by others.
