Someone on my other board this AM posted the following:

"My self-esteem must be based on the fact that I am a child of God,
not what others think,
not what I have done in the past,
not what others do,
not what I have achieved,
just that I am loved by the creator of the universe."

It doesn't take much imagination to tweak that for nonbelievers. Kinda cuts through the crap to bedrock, I thought.
