Some words of the wise

My friend and colleague Kirsten Martin wrote a blog entry recently that I think is worth sharing with you. Regardless of her perspective as a Social Work student, it has a truly valuable lesson that we all can share:

We are torn and wrinkled by the experiences in life. Some experience more of this than others, but yet our value remains a constant. So many times it is easy to look at ourselves or at others and see the wrinkles and tears and feel like the value is not there or has decreased. It is essential to remember that this is not the case. ... We still retain our dignity and self worth and in turn our value as a human being (excerpt from "The Value of People" by Kirsten Martin)
