Trying to make something of some kind of value.

I don’t know if making something can keep us warm, healthy or safe.

What about this? Is this something?

What if I followed it? Just follow it. Told myself it’s essential. Something of value.

If I finished this, could it be essential? To someone? Would it be something?
