Unworthy

All I need in this world to survive and thrive instead of merely exist is someone who will love me. Someone who truly cares about me. They say first you must love your self before you can love someone else.  That’s bull shit, you aren’t born loving yourself, you aren’t born with a sense of self confidence or self worth. They are learned attributes. When we are very young, we are taught our worth and our value from the people around us, in what we’re told, how we’re spoken to, how we are treated.  All of our self perception derives from that. This is a true yet disturbing thought,  the entire foundation that we build 100% of our existances self perception on is nothing but a mimicry of someone else’s opinion of our worth. As humans how are we suppose to learn how to do anything if at first we are not shown how. If no one has ever shown you love, you’ll never know how to love yourself because no one has ever shown you that you’re worth being loved.
