I will never be someone's last choice, second option, narcissistic supply, doormat, ego booster, sidekick, secret, last time or after thought. I am a Daughter of God that stands for truth. I know my beauty, my talents, my accomplishments, what I have to offer and who leads my life purpose: my Heavenly Father. But, most of all I know my value and I will never let any man define my worth. Shannon L. Alder
About This Quote

When this quote is read, it is important to remember the context in which the speaker said it. It is not used to describe oneself so much as it is used to describe another person. The speaker is speaking about another person, but she would like that other person’s value to be recognized. She feels that it is important for that other person’s value to be recognized because that other person has a higher purpose than she does.

This would be like saying, “I am not worth anything without my husband, but he is truly worth more than I am.” A common mistake when using this quote is to use it to describe oneself. When you read this quote, think of who said it.
