Luckily, I was wrong. My worth does not depend on how people view or treat me. Nothing that I could do could make me worth any less. I have come to believe that everyone, absolutely everyone, has inherent value. Even the people I don’t like. Like diamonds, and Sapphires, just by existing we add to the beauty in the world. We are priceless, and perfect. And the people who view you, or me, as less than that are wrong.
I didn’t lose my virginity out of love. No, that day was a nightmare, where my world of glass
was being threatened, and I felt that if I gave this prize possession, I would not be abandoned.
But he viewed me as a conquest, and once I was conquered and broken, my value was gone.
And for a long time, I believed that lie too. I viewed myself as worthless, and tainted, no longer
did I have anything to offer. My actionscaused my fear to happen, and come to life.
