When an individual performs an act of kindness we are "repairing the world". So, yes, we are equally important to G-d bec ause we are all capable of those acts of kindness and not one of us is better than the other. But...as humans we do tend toward the judgmental, don't we? And we are, at times, the worst judge of ourselves. I've been learning about self-compassion. I put my hand over my heart, notice the warmth, and say to myself , breathe. And come back to breathing.
