how much are you worth?


How much are you worth?

The society that you live in measures your worth by the money you have, the figures in your bank account, your investments, your assets , or any material forms that could be calculated.

Recent business reports have claimed that there are 62 rich people who are as wealthy as half of the world's population today. That's ridiculous! 

Some would give their annual earnings as an answer. If you get a high paying job, then you are more expensive. If you don't have any work, it is likely to say that it would be difficult to determine your price.

Iran is the only country which legalizes the selling of kidney. A single kidney could cost around 10 or 20 grand. Hypothetically thinking, when you try to assess all your body organs' cost, you could totally sum your worth into as much as 21 million dollars. The healthier you are the more expensive you will be. The younger you are the most promising worth you will get.

In some areas in the world, a woman is being paid by her fiance the moment or before she ties the knot. She is going to get the so-called dowry based on her educational attainment and position in the society. The more educated she is, the more dowry she can get. The more prolific she is, the more worth she can get before or during marriage.

Your assets could determine how much do you have. It could be your house, car, jewelry, or any material things that you possess.

In reality, there is not enough money in this entire life that could equalize your worth. There is no monetary value that can be put on yourself. Your worth is incomparable to those 62 rich people or any celebrities getting paid with millions of dollars for every project they make . Your worth is beyond comparison to themYou are unique. You are priceless. You are much more unaffordable than the most expensive diamond in this world.

Think again. 

How much value do you give to yourself?

mint

This morning, I browsed over one of my social media accounts and I found a photo that tickled me a lot. It contained a green garden of this popular herb. At first glance it looked just all right, but the moment I was about to swipe my phone up, I couldn't stop from giggling. It was difficult to hold my giggle until it had followed me to the shower room. While putting on my suit for work, I remembered the picture again. I giggled... then I giggled... and then I giggled again.

The things around us bring finite happiness that can somehow lighten our everyday living. This world presents the big, gigantic, grand, most festive, most colorful, expensive stuff to gratify the senses of men. In reality, people don't experience them everyday. The small or simple things are the ones that we encounter almost often, but sad to say that sometimes people tend to overlook at them frequently.

It was just a simple one. The photo had an erroneous label as 'ment' instead of its correct spelling as 'mint.' Shallow I might have been, but it's the littlest things that could make me giggle the longest. It's the small ones that can make me appreciate more of the things around me.
