But dignity is personal and private. Dignity is perhaps the only human characteristic that is totally our choice. Nobody can take it away, and you don't have to wait for someone else to Grant it.

For me it is something from within me, self respect, living an authentic life being true to es self.
The only way it can be taken away is to be forced to live or die in a way that I no longer respect myself.

My dignity is self generated, I require no external validation because I only present my authentic self.
I have been mocked, bullied, beat, abused, and neglected.
None of it has much to do with who and what I am.
But most people are superficial.
I had to become anti-social to learn to be independent and then re socialized to pass on what I learned.
Not an easy thing considering how we're biologically evolved to be social.
Few walk my path, it requires to much strength for most.
