A good concept from nihilism, one doesn't dwell on dreams and forget to live.
There is this cool concept of Mirror of Erised, from Harry Potter, on a short term it provides solace , but in the long term dwelling on dreams and perfection might drive you mad.
I don't think either is wrong, and you should not work on your goals, but the goal here is self love, and wholesome love for yourself.
Always start from where you are. It will give more results. Pick actionable small steps.
Hey @funnyWriter805, good to see you again. I remember the mirror from Harry Potter hehe, and I like how you've linked it to share a thoughtful message with the community.
Short term pleasures do seem enticing but yes yes, so right, we should try to focus on the bigger picture and become more accepting, to work on ourselves. To start anywhere, indeed counts just enough. Thankyou for the sweet reminder. ❤
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou Don't sacrifice yourself for an ideal, love yourself and take small actionable steps everyday.
