Thinking about how the players of Double Life immediately started subtly being more careful because of the soul bonds. Thinking about how even though this is a death game, even though the goal has always been to stay alive at all costs and take as little damage as possible, I heard so many variations on "I'm going to have to get used to taking care of you, too" from so many of them, followed by them taking much better care of themselves. Thinking about how out of their way they go not to take small amounts of mundane damage from falls and drowning because the harm feels different when it isn't just you suffering it. Just...thinking a lot about that.
Maybe it's because I'm getting older now, but I hate how everything must be framed in the "how can this make you money" mindset.
You can't draw unless you'll dedicate yourself years to make it a full time job. You can't write unless its practice for the next big hit novel. If playing video games doesn't have future job potential, then it's childish and you need to put them down.
People should be allowed to do things for fun. They should be allowed to try new things without the pressure that the investment needs to be an income. Sometimes, people don't care about the grind or the endless improvement mindset, and that should be okay.
Posting something online shouldn't be treated like an addition to a resume.

your love is healing. it burns you with every bit of your soul, but you choose to heal, nevertheless. you are so, so so strong and i hope you know that. i send you peace. i send you calm. i hope things will become better for you in time, just as you have made others better in time as well.
-`. LOVE THAT LASTS.
love unconditional, love unfailing. you love no matter what happens because you believe in the best – of you, and them. it will hurt and it will fail you, but this love tastes so sweet – you can never believe that it bitters sometimes. the way you choose to love unconditionally is incredible.
-`. LOVE THAT PROTECTS.
you love so fiercely, with every fibre of your being. maybe you were wounded by love in the past ; such that you choose to love and love and love so wonderfully that the next person who comes into your life never doubts that they are loved by you.
-`. LOVE THAT STRENGTHENS.
you make sure that people know that they are loved, and you give them strength when they need it the most. this is an ability that is rare; the love that you hold speaks wonders of yourself. i hope you're doing alright. isn't it exhausting always being the bigger person?
-`. LOVE THAT CALMS.
this is sweet. i hope you know that you make others feel at ease around you. you're a gem, a blessing, a treasure – and you should know it. it's comfortable loving you. it's a privilege to be around you and to be let into your world.
