<p>People laugh when I say it, but I mean it — one day, I’d marry my notepad.</p><p><br/></p><p>Why? Because no one understands me like those pages do. Blank, wide-eyed, patient. They never roll their eyes when I rant, never interrupt when I spiral, never sigh when I repeat myself for the tenth time. They just… hold me.</p><p><br/></p><p>I could tell the notepad my secrets at 2 a.m., and it would keep them. No gossip, no judgment. Just ink scars pressed gently into paper skin. Every word I bleed, it remembers. Every shaky line, it keeps. Unlike people, it never forgets what I said yesterday, or last year.</p><p><br/></p><p>I’ve tried talking to humans. They smile, nod, sometimes listen, but they forget. My notepad doesn’t. It carries me in scribbles and doodles, in half-finished poems, in shopping lists that turned into prayers. It’s the archive of my becoming.</p><p><br/></p><p>There is nothing like it. Phones die, files delete, people drift. But my notepad — it stays. Bent at the edges, coffee-stained, pages torn… but faithful. Always faithful.</p><p><br/></p><p>So yes, one day, I’d marry my notepad. Not because it’s perfect, but because it remembers all of me — the messy, the broken, the brilliant. And in a world that forgets too quickly, that kind of memory is love.</p><p><br/></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.
