<p><img alt="" src="/media/inline_insight_image/33674.png" style="background-color: transparent;"/>Pain doesn’t always scream.</p><p>Sometimes it whispers.</p><p><br/></p><p>It sits quietly in the chest, heavy and unmovable, making ordinary days feel exhausting. Pain is waking up with a weight you can’t explain, smiling when everything inside you feels like it’s falling apart. It’s the tears you swallow because you don’t know how to put the hurt into words.</p><p><br/></p><p>Pain remembers everything.</p><p>It remembers the people who left, the promises that broke, the moments you thought would last forever but didn’t. It reminds you of how deeply you cared, even when caring cost you peace.</p><p><br/></p><p>There is a loneliness in pain that feels personal, like no one else could possibly understand it the way you do. You replay conversations. You question yourself. You wonder if things would have been different if you had been more, or less, or something else entirely.</p><p><br/></p><p>And yet, pain also shows how strong the heart is.</p><p>Because even while it hurts, you keep going. You wake up. You breathe. You survive days you once thought would break you. That quiet survival is bravery, even if no one applauds it.</p><p><br/></p><p>Pain changes you. It softens you in some places and hardens you in others. It teaches you empathy, patience, and the depth of your own emotions. It leaves scars, yes—but scars mean healing happened.</p><p><br/></p><p>Pain is not weakness.</p><p>It is proof that you loved, hoped, trusted, and felt deeply. And one day, without realizing when it happened, the pain will loosen its grip. It won’t disappear, but it will stop defining you.</p><p><br/></p><p>Because even the heaviest pain eventually learns how to make room for light.</p>
At the end of the month, we give out prizes in 3 categories: Best Content, Top Engagers and
Most Engaged Content.
Best Content
We give out cash prizes to 7 people with the best insights in the past month. The 7 winners are picked
by an in-house selection process.
The winners are NOT picked from the leaderboards/rankings, we choose winners based on the quality, originality
and insightfulness of their content.
Top Engagers
For the Top Engagers Track, we award the top 3 people who engage the most with other user's content via
comments.
The winners are picked using the "Monthly Engagers" tab on the rankings page.
Most Engaged Content
The Most Engaged Content recognizes users whose content received the most engagement during the month.
We pick the top 3.
The winners are picked using the "Monthly Contributors" tab on the rankings page.
Here are a few other things to know for the Best Content track
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.
Contributor Rankings
The Contributor Rankings shows the Top 20 Contributors on TwoCents a monthly and all-time basis.
The all-time ranking is based on the Contributor Score, which is a measure of all the engagement and exposure a contributor's content receives.
The monthly score sums the score on all your insights in the past 30 days. The monthly and all-time scores are calcuated DIFFERENTLY.
This page also shows the top engagers on TwoCents — these are community members that have engaged the most with other user's content.
