It’s important to remember that every individual’s worth is not determined by their marital status, pet ownership, or parental status. People contribute to society in diverse and meaningful ways, often beyond conventional metrics. A person who chooses to live with their pet and engage in hobbies like binge-watching dramas might contribute in ways that are not immediately visible, such as fostering a sense of community through online interactions, pursuing personal growth, or providing support to others in their own unique ways. Everyone's life has value and purpose, and it’s crucial to respect and acknowledge the different ways people contribute to the world around them. Bye
Thank you for the validation of my existence, not that I needed validation. We need more users on MDL with positive, life-affirming, and critical thinking skills who are able to embrace others. Your first sentence "It's important to remember that every individual's worth is not determined by" should be the only thing needing to be said. Unfortunately, based on this thread, comments in MDL, and comments on other sites, many don't see a human worthy unless they have attributes other than JUST being a human. What they fail to understand is What goes around will eventually come around. None of us are immune to reaping what we've sown with our words and behaviors. To think otherwise is the utmost in arrogance.Thank you, ASTER.
