Cultivated “Value”

Value is generated from discovering, possessing, and too the ability to share or gift well of something uncommon - something unique to you. This can be experiences, character, skills, a material thing. All are earned I think; the higher your investment, sacrifice, risk, the higher the value. Sometimes, you cant foresee the reward.

Experience is something you pay for; sometimes willingly, sometimes unknowingly,  sometimes the opposite. Character you accept, develop, hone and discover, through painful experiences. Skills through experience and trials and failure. Material goods may be derived as the result of the development of some or more of the previous categories. 

Value is not only measured by one of these categories but rather the sum of all. One may have an over abundance of value in one category and an apparent deficit in another, but the cumulative sum is the value they possess.
