In the end.

Was what worth it? I mean, you're here already, what are your options really - sit around like a bump just so you might not do anything you'll regret, or have an interesting life and make the best of things?

I think I am just not introspective that way, wondering "if it was all worth it".

I don't wonder if it was all worth it either. I was born for a reason and I am currently fulfilling that reason and all the events that led up to me completing that task were preparing me to fulfill that reason so they would, of course, be worth it.

It's all much easier than folks make it out to be.

Oh, yeah! It was worth it!

One should never turn down cheesecake when it is available...for any reason.

ME too and the answer is always YES!

If there is cheesecake involved then it is always worth it. I am sure that there are a number of things that make most of it worth it.

I still am not sure that I need to be worth it anymore. It would help to have a purpose, that didn't involve irritating other people in this life.

If I can assure myself that more people's lives were positively effected by my presence in their life than people whose lives were negatively effected than I can sleep at night.

There are a couple of people that I know have a better life today because of things I did that helped them. I don't think that includes my kids! With my kids there is always the balance issue of why they'll need therapy in a few years!!

Is it worth it?

Is there an alternative??

Did somebody say cheesecake??

I don't think I have made a difference in anyone's life.

Aw, that's a nice one...

I have to agree with sourland too to some extent. There's a quote from somewhere "Those who don't make mistakes will never make anything at all."

If you have a Greater Hope, it is soo worth it, to keep pressing on to the mark. Without Hope, I would be most miserable.
