Living the Questions: At home, frustrated and stressed is 'just being' worthy right now?
\u201cIf I believe that we are all inherently worthy just by being human, how can I feel that way when I feel I\u2019m doing \u2018nothing?\u2019\u201d \u2014 Anna Bondoc from Los Angeles\n\nSo many of us are raised to believe that hard work is what makes us valuable; many of our professions and even our identities as helpers are on hold. How does self-worth interact with just being when we feel we're doing nothing? Krista reflects on the problem with the phrase \u201cjust being\u201d \u2014 and how settling inside ourselves right now, and kindness towards ourselves, are gifts to the world we want to make beyond this crisis.\n\nLiving the Questions is an occasional On Being segment where Krista muses on questions from our listening community.
