I kind of wish that the idea that you can just beย was a little more mainstream.
Like, having drive and ambition is great. But it gets drilled in kidsโ heads that there is some pressure to constantly be looking for the next move up, to be bigger than life. It wears you down to never be satisfied.
Not everyone is destined for greatness. It just doesnโt suit some people.
Thereโs nothing wrong with having a quiet life, making enough to get by, having a small apartment where youโre comfortable, and just living. You donโt have to constantly be looking to go onward and upwards. Sometimes the best thing you can do for yourself is to just be.
โIt is no bad thing to celebrate a simple life.โ -J.R.R. Tolkien
