You’re not a machine. Slow down. Hug longer. Laugh louder. Your worth isn't defined by constant productivity. We need music, sunsets, connection, and a few simple moments or joy, not as rewards, but as essentials for a meaningful life.
Basic advice: Before you criticise someone for ‘not saying enough’ or ‘not doing enough’ about your chosen cause or social issue, check if you’re actually doing anything useful yourself. Advanced tip: You telling people they are ‘not doing enough’ on social media doesn’t count…
No one knows what ends up on the cutting room floor.
We're delighted to announce that Vengeance by @SaimaMir has been longlisted for The Diverse Book Awards! @The_DBAwards Congratulations to Saima and all the other longlistees! 👏👏
