Protect Your Value



Protect Your Value
By Robert T. Davenport

In a world that seeks to diminish your worth,
Where voices of doubt and judgment may surface,
Stand tall, my friend, and protect your value,
For within you lies a treasure, pure and true.

Do not let the shadows of others' opinions,
Cast doubt upon your dreams and ambitions,
For you are a masterpiece, a work of art,
A soul with a purpose, a beating heart.

In a society that thrives on comparison,
Where beauty is measured by a shallow perception,
Embrace your uniqueness, your flaws and scars,
For they are the badges that make you who you are.

Protect your value, like a precious gem,
For it is not defined by the world's shallow lens,
It lies in the kindness you show to others,
In the love you give, in the way you discover.

Do not let the world's noise drown your voice,
For within you lies a power, a choice,
To rise above the chaos, to stand firm and strong,
To protect your value, where you truly belong.

In a world that may try to break you down,
Remember, my friend, you wear a crown,
A crown of resilience, of strength and grace,
A symbol of your worth, in every embrace.

Protect your value, like a sacred flame,
For it is not defined by fortune or fame,
It resides in the depths of your soul,
A light that shines, making you whole.

So, stand tall, my friend, and protect your value,
For you are worthy, deserving, and true,
Embrace your worth, let it guide your way,
And let the world witness your brilliance each day.
