"I like to imagine that the world is one big machine. You know, machines never have any extra parts. They have the exact number and type of parts they need. So I figure if the entire world is a big machine, I have to be here for some reason. And that means you have to be here for some reason, too."
― Brian Selznick, The Invention of Hugo Cabret

This is one timeless favourite quote for years. It changed the way I see the human being, and seeing life progression in general. I’ve been re-doodled it again and again, cause I think some people need to read it once in a while.
Like, right now.
Everyone is having their own kind of shits, to me; one of them is being discourage and feeling expired, losing purpose, and stuck- for quite a time.
To some people, in this kind of situation; the easiest way to do is corrupt your own self-belief, thinking that what you do right now is wasted cause you see nothing in returns, you’re burned out - but for what? You thought you already do the best you can, but then what? Nothing happen. You just spin in circle, not going up, probably rolling on the way down instead.
It’s like you’re digging a hole to cover another hole. There’ll be always those empty spots. And apparently the surrounding makes you think like that. You stop seeing your worth cause you felt like capped, losing your purpose, useless.
I revisit my old notebook and stumble to this timely reminder. Woe is me, I often forget.
If you think you’re useless, you probably are. At that time, or at that place. But you’re not a useless human being as a whole. Who knows now that you’re levelling, you are meant to be at another place, when your time is come. Progressing.
Like a video game, you’re done with the quests. Be it side quests or main quests, and what’s left is to move forward. Isn’t that exciting?
Damn right it is.

A medium-length talk from myself to myself. No one can save yourself but yourself, and that’s the hardest part.
This is one of ways I chose to do.
