Measure your worth

 She smiled and said,

"You have been taught to measure your worth
By your youth
But consider this carefully:
Is your worth truly measured
By how little life you have lived?
Is your beauty truly measured
By how untouched your skin is?
And is your success truly measured
By how little progress you have made?
From the perspective of your soul.
You are completely timeless, ageless
And precious
At each stage of your ever-unfolding journey
For all who are young will be old
And all who are old have been young
As both are contained within the other,
And one is not superior to the other."
Words by Tahlia Hunter
