I've always asked myself and my readers this question but I couldn't have explained better (in terms of where I am coming from/why I am asking) than PhillyD in this video.
Philip DeFranco (aka sxephil) - Not only is he one of my top favourite Vloggers of all time but he's as real as a human being can get. I love watching his news videos but recently he's dedicated videos to asking questions of reflection that we all can use a dose of once in a while!
I love that he's truthful and honest (most times blunt) but has the quality of being a complete gentleman.
Phil's QOTD: At this point in your life, what gives you purpose? What gives you a feeling of self worth/value? And if you don't have something, what would?
I think at this point in my life it's what I can do as a bestfriend, a daughter, a girlfriend, a sister, a student and a member in society that gives me self worth. I try to make the people in my life happy by being a good person and in turn it makes me really happy to have a great surrounding of people who I feel are genuine, positive and supportive. But like Phil said, we're always evolving, and I guess in life you can only try to BETTER yourself instead of striving for perfection because once you become complacent with your progress then that is when there will be no room for improvements. I will remind myself to never become complacent of my achievements, and I think that that is what gives me self worth as I'm always striving to become better.
How about you guys? I tag you to answer this QOTD (question of the day) at the end of your next blog post and challenge yourself in answering this question!
Happy Friday guys! :)

owh,,actually I feel kinda down now, of my life =( I only good as being a girlfriend. and blogger, as for now, is one of a few thing that can cheer me up. I've been feeling insecure bcuz of my current family condition, it's so problematic that I wish I'd just run away somewhere else (sorry to make it sounds like a rant, haha) to a brighter side, I do want to make others happy too. I'm planning to enroll myself in make-up school :D thanks for the inspiring post
