Today is just another ordinary day. As soon as I wake up, I mechanically repeat the actions of the previous day. I wake up, wash up, have breakfast, and head to work. Every day is so similar, it seems like there's nothing to look forward to.
But in the midst of such ordinary days, I occasionally have small desires. For instance, I wish someone could remember me, remember my name, and remember my face. Not because I want to be a star or a public figure, but because I want to be recognized, I want to be seen.
I know it might sound silly, but I really want to hear someone say 'You look great today.' Regardless of who it comes from, their praise is the greatest encouragement for me. Because in this competitive and stressful world, we're always required to do better, to become better versions of ourselves.
But sometimes, I just want to be told that I'm good enough just the way I am. Good enough, without needing to try harder or change. Just the way I am, I'm attractive enough.
I know this might be a small desire, but to me, it's the most genuine one. Because in life, we're always required to do better, but we often overlook the fact that we're already good enough.
