Value from within,
Can become deflated,
When disregarded,
& not needed;
Yet becomes elated,
When celebrated.
Find what makes us elevated
& drives delighted;
Who helps in being co-created?
Don't be overinflated,
As it comes across conceited;
Others then feel depleted,
If competed.

A question asked,
That when admitting on every task,
Does it add to our value or contrast?
Choosing wisely can make us long-last;
Whereas diminished returns,
Can make us trashed.
Considering our concerns,
Makes certain we'll be unsurpassed;
Making life class, secure, & steadfast.

Careful when others dictate our values,
As they can't know all avenues;
They might choose based on revenue,
& what they can accrue,
Yet not always in alignment with you.
See why they construe,
Check what you find true,
& what you want to pursue,
Else it can leave us feeling blue.
