I was born with nothing, and I’m leaving with nothing Life is a constant series of choices. We go through life thinking about what to eat, what to say, how to act, what to watch, and who to talk to. A long time ago, I decided that I would only do things that make me feel good—on my own time and with the people I love. Rather than making my life easier, this has made it more authentic and real. Even if something brings me money or is a social norm I’m supposed to follow, I respond only to what makes me feel good. And when I talk about feeling good, it might bring me joy and satisfaction, but it might also just bring me peace—and that’s enough. I no longer seek to please others, accumulate possessions, or cater to the interests of others, nor do I get caught up in pointless struggles: my life is mine, and I am the one who lives it. That is why I seek what is essential to me—what makes my heart sing and, at the end of the day, feels not like a burden but like an experience I am grateful f
