"Nuestro valor es intrínseco, independientemente del reconocimiento"
— Alain de Botton

Simplified Meaning:
Every person has value just because they exist, not because of what they achieve or how others see them. Think of a newborn baby; the baby hasn't done anything yet, but everyone loves and values the baby simply for being there. Similarly, our worth is like that. Imagine a beautiful flower in a hidden forest. Even if no one sees it, it's still beautiful. Your value isn't tied to compliments, awards, or being noticed. It's always there, no matter what. In your daily life, remember that times of joy and sadness are okay. You don't need others to tell you that you matter; you inherently do. Appreciate who you are, and don't base your self-esteem on outside validation.
