<p>I ask myself this question more than I'd like to admit .</p><p> Why do I give so much of my heart to people who only give me pieces of theirs?</p><p> I think it's the hope. The hope that one day, they'll see me, choose me, love me the way I love them.</p><p> And in that hope, I lose myself, I shrink, I settle, I silence the voice inside me that knows I deserve more.</p><p> Sometimes, it's not even about them🤨 it's about the emptiness I feel when I'm alone.</p><p>It's about the filling that space with anything that resembles affection, even if it's not real.</p><p> And I hold on, even when it hurts, because letting go feels like admitting I wasn't enough </p><p> But deep down I know...</p><p> Love should not feel like begging </p><p> Affection should not feel like chasing </p><p>I deserve something that flows freely not something I have to fight for just to feel a glimpse of it</p><p> So maybe it's time to stop reaching for hands that never reach back. Maybe it's time to choose <strong>myself</strong></p>
At the end of each month, we give out cash prizes to 5 people with the best insights in the past month
as well as coupon points to 15 people who didn't make the top 5, but shared high-quality content.
The winners are NOT picked from the leaderboards/rankings, we choose winners based on the quality, originality
and insightfulness of their content.
Here are a few other things to know
1
Quality over Quantity — You stand a higher chance of winning by publishing a few really good insights across the entire month,
rather than a lot of low-quality, spammy posts.
2
Share original, authentic, and engaging content that clearly reflects your voice, thoughts, and opinions.
3
Avoid using AI to generate content—use it instead to correct grammar, improve flow, enhance structure, and boost clarity.
4
Explore audio content—high-quality audio insights can significantly boost your chances of standing out.
5
Use eye-catching cover images—if your content doesn't attract attention, it's less likely to be read or engaged with.
6
Share your content in your social circles to build engagement around it.
