Joy that has nothing to do with achievement is one of the most life-giving things we have. You’re allowed to love something simply because it lights you up. No pressure to monetize it. No need to justify it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The things that make you feel alive — playing, creating, wandering, daydreaming — aren’t distractions from your real life. They are your real life. They’re the moments that remind you who you are when the world gets loud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
