Feeling 'Useless'? You're Probably A Mola Mola

Hello everyone. It's me again with some random thoughts and facts I just wanna share because I can't sleep.

Ever heard of a 🐟Sunfish (or Mola Mola)? 🐟 It is dubbed the most useless fish in the ocean. It can't swim fast, it has no tail, it just drift in the surface. It has skin so thick it can't be even food to anyone.

It has no use to anyone, fish or humans, whatsoever. 🤷

And yet, it still exist to this day. It still managed to populate even after all these years. You would think that a fish like that would go extinct millions ago. But it didn't.

See, the best it's done is the Sunfish is just being a Sunfish. It uses it's own 'uselessness' to live and survive the harsh ocean.


💭 Thick skin? Great, I can't become food. Time to make 3 million babies.😄

💭 Why swim when the current could take me instead? 😎

- The Sunfish, probably 🐟💭


If you ever think to yourself you're useless, or anyone else calls you that, because you struggle to keep up or perform like everyone else, remember the Mola Mola.

✨ Your worth isn't define by how much you swim or how much you do. Sometimes, just existing and enduring in a world that doesn't understand your design is your greatest strength. ✨

Stop trying to be a shark when you were born to be a Mola Mola. Living strong is the best defense in life.


Fun fact:

Mola Molas can grow to be over 2,000kg. They prove that you can become a giant in this world just by eating jellyfish and minding your own business. You don't have to hunt to grow.


If you made it this far, great. Now you know about Mola Mola and hopefully you know you're not actually useless.


Random stuffs is random. Because who doesn't think about fish at 3am? 😆

Wow, this is an amazing msg honestly. the most important thing that stood out to me is “Stop trying to be a shark when you were born to be a Mola Mola. Living strong is the best defense in life„ Honestly it's kinda hard for Ppl's to accept this fact... but it Hits the very truth. we often chase things which is not at all meant for us... in the process we just lose everything that is best for us, the thing that prove us what we actually deserve, what we actually are.😊💓.

I'm struggling with self-worth though. i see myself a trash n that's how i treated IRL sadly. but I'm not giving up... I learned that i don't need to be perfect but making mistakes is what going to shape shift me 💓

This is the motivational msg that i stood out for me today... I'm grateful to start my with this. thank you for sharing 😊💓. 

Sending lots of love and happiness ur way 💗 Hugs 🤗

Not what I was expecting,  our sunfish live in fresh water. Our local river has them, no bigger than the size of a hand.

@QuietByNature

Had a small freak out and thought I got it wrong lol

But after a quick google, turns out sunfish could refer to two things: freshwater sunfish (e. g. Bluegil, which is probably what you're seeing in your area) and the ocean sunfish (the Mola Mola).

They are completely different family of fish with a same name.

... Just thought I'd share hehe.
