What is someone worth to you?
And what is your worth to someone?
What’s your worth to yourself?

To me, the things most worthwhile are those that are worthy enough to be subjectively worth your time.

Exchange rates between countries fluctuate. Materials and goods depreciate over time but sometimes spike in value due to supply/demand or unforeseen trends. Water is at its highest glory when one is stuck in a desert. How do we decide the worth of people?

• Our biological ties?
• History and time spent?
• Social commitments?
• The positive vibes they bring?
• Familiarity?

When we find someone “worthy”, we tend to go against previous established commitments, goals, promises. We go against our inhibitions, freeing ourselves from self imposed binds. Taking a leap of faith, not knowing where this decision will lead you. As someone who (at most times) thinks before he jumps, it’s scary not knowing where (and when) you’ll land.

But not always. Sometimes, we’re at that cusp before we take the plunge and yet we hesitate. We simply could be in a territory we’ve never been before. Feeling emotions foreign to us. Variables undefined simply because we don’t know how to define them. We can’t simply do just to do. But do we? And why?

Do we hesitate because we question their worth or do we hesitate because we question if it’s worth it?

Maybe someone more worthy will come around in the future.
