Worth

Benjamin Franklin said: "Either write something worth reading or do something worth writing". I love it. It seems we have no choice. Whatever we do, it must be something "worthy", i.e. deserving. Deserving what? Definitely... consideration. A life, in whatever way it is lived, has to be meaningful, for both yourself and others. You cannot simply vegetate, living in a dull, inactive way, without producing anything beneficial. The "products" of life can be dissimilar, but it's ok, as long as they aren't useless. Don't waste your talents, either artistic, intellectual or practical. Anything can be useful, "worth". It's up to you to make it so.
