The question was : What is your most treasured possession?

The elaborated answer was : I answered with myself. The meaning behind this was I don't care about losing physical possessions or anything like that, like it would make me sad but I could always replace it. I could never lose my sense of self. I treasure the fact that I have found myself, and no matter what I would never let anybody take that from me. I also just think it's important to treasure yourself because if you think about it, you could never replace a lost sense of self worth you've previously worked so hard to obtain.

"Make a dent in the universe." -Steve Jobs
