What we value has value. See diamond: it is only aged compressed coal. We may value things without them having any intrinsic worth. There are several factors which play on our minds. For instance, people, who manage a lofty niche for themselves with their larger-than-life images getting flashed too often, attract the adoring attention of people despite their having no meaningful role in our lives. One may value, for instance, a film actress more than their mother. Unusuality is another factor; we don't value normal walking which sustains our lives but value dancing movements of legs like nothing.
What we value becomes valuable by taking something out of us. Sometimes, we are amply compensated for valuing something like if we value education. In many cases, the diminishing of self is irreparable when we value worthless persons, occasions, and things, particularly stage-managed ones with a purpose. One needs to be discerning what they value.
One of the paramount phenomena which deserves high value on the part of an individual is their person and persona. One must keep this in their mind. Anything that deprecates your value must be discarded if having a choice. One must value only things which enhance their value in return. There may be some exceptions to the rule; among others are our nation, parents, and teachers. We owe to them greatly for what we are. We must also value our fellow travellers. The mutuality makes us human.
