In tiny Ruin
Added 2023-09-25 19:02:46 +0000 UTCI've spent a couple weeks working on a Lego project, and I kept having to rework it over and over until it no longer became fun and instead became not only unenjoyable, but also a reason to doubt my skills and value as a peron.
In the end I destroyed it, and will try something later on... after I sort a ton of little, little blocks.
I want to remind everyone here that not everything works out. Trial and error will often contain a fuck load of errors that's okay. Not everything works out the way we want it the first, second, or tenth time, and that doesn't make us unskilled, untalented, or worthless. We're just people, we live and learn. If you're working on something, and it's not working out, it'll be alright. Switch tactics, or do something else. Hobbies should fun, and not something you mentally beat yourself up over. Be kind to yourselves.
I wish the best, for all of you, in whatever you're up to.
B.
