Hopping from one bulb to another...

I am not Superior

Every time when I see amazing creations from other creators, I always feel that my creations are quite lame to some extent, but counter-intuitively, I have friends like and impressed by what I have made.


This always reminds me that John Cena has 2 watches. One tells time, one tells perspective. The one that tells perspective has 2 sides, engraved with "Momento Mori" and "Comparison is the thief of joy".


It is easy for me to remind my-self that I am above no one, which you can easily tell from the statistics I have. Other world creators earn 10k favourites within 2 weeks, and I haven't reach even 2k favourites for even years, however, I still appreciate that I have 1k favourites for some of my worlds (thanks for the favourite QwQ).


"Comparison is the thief of joy", this is easy to understand, but difficult to avoid. Afterall, this is what has been keeping me going for a long time. However, with a little trick, comparison can be good : turning comparisons into constructive learning, see how things are done, see what can be extracted and applied, see what can you learn from it.


Saying that I am an amazing creator ? I appreciate your admiration QwQ but I am not there yet, but working on it. Saying that I am just another lame loser ? Well... I don't want to win in every cases, I only like to win in some certain ones ... say inspiring others.


To all my friends who love my creations, thanks for the admiration and supports, I will keep on making things, hopefully to inspire someone else in some way constructive.
