Goddess knows I didn't know I was precious like that when I was a child.

I didn't know that I should NEVER have been asked to kill all my own wants & needs for the sake of the people demanding things from me.

I destroyed myself internally because everything around me seemed to be telling me "you're not worth it. What you need doesn't matter."

Kids aren't born knowing that they matter, & words will never be enough to teach them. If people don't show them with their actions, they won't know.
