Humans are a wonder.
You are a wonder too.
Another day, another me, having mixed feelings and carrying doubts and anxieties. I was just scrolling through my feeds and suddenly watching some videos, and I was just amazed by the fact that people are so amazingly talented—the things one cannot imagine about some people already making them a reality—and you are left with nothing but awestruck at them.
One after another, some making unique music with traditional instruments, some moving their bodies so effortlessly, even babies around the world at their tender ages with their tiny limbs and cute faces acted so naturally that one could not take their eyes off of them. Some people who come from backward areas where there are few resources or any kind of help have a unique and appreciative talent in them. There are countless things one could see with the help of the internet and ask themselves why they can't do such things.
Not everyone can be equally talented, but it's also a fact that everyone has something unique that makes them different from others; the difference is that some realize it and some do not. But why are we talking about this thing out of the blue? These people who are shocking the world with their unique talents are a reminder that hard work and talent can take you so far, and instead of crying about your situation, one should understand that there are people who are in the worst situation but still doing the best they can, so if they can, why not you?
This is just a reminder (for myself) that nothing develops overnight, but with constant efforts and without getting tired, you really can turn things in your favor. So, just don't scroll, but inspire yourself and work on it.
