    Bumping this from my other reply to root in short form:

    You are precious without working to earn it; what you earn is your share of the ability to live on this difficult earth.

    Our society and economy are so complex, and many people will devalue you, value you wrongly, and do every evil under the sun. Others, I hope, will love you far more than you seem to deserve, and share with you at their greater expense.

    But at the bottom of it, someone or someones, have to labour to earn the possibility for you to live. If no one labours, no one lives.
