Catch the fire burning out your soul...
Just make it die, or you'll turn it all..
to ashes and blood.
i genuinely don't think our bodies need 3 litres of water a day.
like why tf am I peeing every 5 minutes? just store it mf if you need it.
i do things purely for the love of the game. But sometimes, somewhere along the way, life makes it a necessity to monetize the very skills, hobbies, and things you once did out of passion. the moment you start doing something you love for money, you stop loving it the same way.
I’ve been noticing how everything seems to need a purpose these days.
You pick up photography and suddenly you’re supposed to start an Instagram page. You enjoy writing and someone asks if you’ve thought about freelancing. You start learning something new and before you know it, you’re thinking about how it could look on your resume or about monetisation.
At some point, did we forget that we can just enjoy things?
I get the appeal of turning your interests into something bigger. Making money from something you love. Having a side project is exciting. But I feel like we’ve reached a point where even our free time comes with the pressure to be productive.
Not every interest needs to become a career. Not every skill needs to be monetized. And not every hour spent doing something needs to have a measurable outcome.
Sometimes I just want to do something because I enjoy it. Without thinking about whether it’ll help me professionally, whether I can put it on LinkedIn, or whether it’ll lead to something six months down the line.
There’s already enough pressure to figure out what we’re doing with our lives. Turning every little thing we enjoy into another responsibility doesn’t make it any easier.
Maybe it’s okay to have hobbies you’re not particularly good at. Maybe it’s okay to spend an entire afternoon doing something that won’t earn you a single rupee or add anything to your portfolio.
I don’t think everything needs to become an opportunity. Some things can just be yours.
of course i love you for your personality babe.
but i can't exactly stick my penis inside your personality.
it's almost unsettling how naturally i recognise myself in her.
It's like hearing your own thoughts in another voice,
only a little softer,
a little sweeter.
