I remember once
My english teacher said
No two english words mean the same thing
What of Words like "value" and "worth" i asked
Synonyms, describes a thing
"Relatively"
She sits down and smiles
Listen! Your worth is your "true" value
We all frowned
Explain ma!
"Worth" is your cost price
"Value" is your selling price
Many people lose their "worth"
Trying to upgrade their "value"
Value is "how much" people percieve you worth
Worth is "how much" you actually value... which is more important to you? There is value in knowing your worth..
So i could "value" less than i "worth" i asked confused
Could a selling price be lower than the cost price??
She said "imagine a house built with the finest of stones, timber, cedar woods, saphre, diamonds worthing billions
But furnished with cheap paints"
The house remains cheap
Not until those paints are scrapped off to reveal its worth
This is the sad tale
Of most living dead
Everyone is created by God to worth "invaluable"
But in a bid to place a price tag "value" on ourselves by things we do
Sin, bad attitude, low self esteem
We end up worthing less than a dime
I once knew a man whose creation forced God to rest
Because it took God all he had to make him
And God looks at him with a tired face, a broad smile and a pat on the back by the rest of "trinity" and called him "beautiful"
Now only tears is what's left on Gods eyes when he sees this man
It could cost a million to make something
But at the end it may be sold at a "billion" or "thousand"
It took a great deal to make you
What's your worth valued at now
But always remember
Your value does not decrease
Based on another's inability
To see your worth...
Think about this
