I believe self worth should never be tied to possessions, as they do not represent the kind of person you are.

 @9KFTX3HProgressive from California agreed…8mos8MO

They didn't even answer the question right. I think life would be a lot more free if self-worth was detached from possessions.

 @9KFRGJP from Illinois answered…8mos8MO

I wouldn't like that one bit. My life would feel like something completely different than it was before. Life will get sad, and lonely without said possessions.

 @9KH8QDW from Texas agreed…8mos8MO

People have possessions that they like to keep and always have it with them. How would you feel if someone took your possessions.

 @9TFZVSV from California answered…1mo1MO

I think my emotional life would have been improved but not by much as my emotional state is not driven by possessions but rather the people I talk to, I do not believe my self-worth or life would have been different if I had been detached from my possessions, only change I would see would be spending less time on my phone or computer looking at decorations.

 @9TFRZSV from New York answered…1mo1MO

My life would be very much the same as my self worth is not attach to my possessions.

Your self-worth shouldn’t be tied to your possessions to begin with. You should value yourself regardless of what you have or how rich or poor you are. Also, people shouldn’t determine your worth based on anything other than your quality of character. If you genuinely tie these things, you’ve lost yourself in consumerism. Enjoy the things you have, but don’t tie them to your own self-worth. This should be obvious.

If you self-worth is detached from objects you will find yourself to be more positive. It would be an improvement.

 @9KFRPRM from Tennessee answered…8mos8MO

I wouldn't like that. It's important for those two to be connected.

Iran Warns to U.S. Allies Don’t Help Israel, or You’re Next

Tehran is threatening in secret diplomatic backchannels to target the oil-rich Arab Gulf states and other American allies in the Middle East if their territories or airspace are used for an attack on Iran, said Arab officials.Israel has threatened Tehran with a severe reprisal after Iran fired about 180 ballistic missiles at Israel earlier this month, with some Israeli officials and commentators pushing for damaging strikes on Tehran’s nuclear facilities or oil infrastructure. In that event, Iran has warned it would respond with devastating hits on Israel’s civilian infrastructure, and would retaliate against any Arab state that facilitated the attack, the officials said.The Arab officials said the countries that Iran has threatened include Jordan, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia and Qatar, all of which host U.S. troops. These states have told the Biden administration that they don’t want their military infrastructure or airspace to be used by the U.S. or Israel for any offensive operations against Iran, the officials said. While the Iranian threats are vague, they have raised concerns in energy-rich Persian Gulf states that their oil facilities—long viewed as protected by an American security umbrella—could be hit, the Arab officials said. U.S. military installations and forces in the region could also be at risk in a region with one of the highest concentrations of American troops in the world, they added.While the Iranian threats are vague, they have raised concerns in energy-rich Persian Gulf states that their oil facilities—long viewed as protected by an American security umbrella—could be hit, the Arab officials said.
