we're on our knees,

Depending on where one derives their self worth from affects how long it will last. If one looked to one night stands, than the validation will last for a night, if one were to look to relationships, then one's confidence would last only as long as the relationship did. And i suppose one could look for their self worth in their freinds, but freinds come and go, as would your confidence. So why not look for it within a family environment? Just the same, families members are likley to let eachother down...

So then where would one look to feel loved, to be taught that they are loved and highly valuable, to gain self confidence, to learn who they are ? It would surely have to be from something inhuman, as human nature is to be broken. If you haven't figured where yet, then i hope you will someday soon.
amazing love, now what else shall i need ?
your name brings light; it's more than the air i breathe
my world was changed, when your love you gave for me
my purpose found in all that you want for me
i've found myself in you . .

Rachel, I love the honesty and passion in your writing. It's really encouraging!

and "found" has pretty much been the song that sums up everything I'm starting to understand here. I love it!
