Per chance I were to be a Spectator
Watching the "Self"
Go through his daily routine
Would I find him worthy of me
Would I wish he were not
Would I wonder
He's being victimized
He's playing the victim
Can I justify his esteem
Can I build his confidence
Would he gain from my insight
Were his ways to change
Then I wouldn't be me!

but dont you think that change is the only constant thing in this world?
i think life is a learning process..
for me, we dont have to be perfect because no one is. what matter is that we learn from our imperfection...
self-worth is a life long quest...what matters is that we aim and try to be the bes-version-of-ourselves..

That was a nice view to go as a poet because sometimes overview are good even as dangerous as they could, may be.
I love the Idea.
And I hope you gain all the greater insights you will ever need.
Keep it up!
Peace and love!
