"A measure of someone's 'self-worth' is not how she feels about her positive experiences, but rather how she feels about her negative ones." @markmansonnet

Everyone goes through a tough situation every now + then, but not everyone can see the part they play in it. Then, even more better themselves because of it. When you go through something hard- don't fake it till you make it. Don't pretend it's not hard by hiding. Don't become the victim by feeling sorry for yourself. Don't try to be "better" than it by lying! Don't avoid it by numbing...
