Worth

Here I sit typing again 

The fragile words of mortal men



What purpose does ones life serve

If only lived for what we think we deserve



If all that I do is for only me

Then what am I worth to others I see



Self worth is important for ones self esteem 

But must be balanced with humility 



Be gracious and kind and generous 

This is not a world of me but a world of us



Share your goods your wealth your time

Share your love your heart your mind



Life is only worth what you have given

So give of your life freely and lay up your treasure in heaven
