I was talking to my colleague about my blog and the poems I used to write but don’t anymore. I showed him some of my poems, and he seemed both shocked and impressed. As he started reading, I watched his face closely, curious to see his reaction. And yes, he loved it. Then he asked me, "Why don’t you write poems now?" Honestly, I didn’t have an answer. I think it’s because I’ve been so busy chasing things I haven’t achieved, that I forgot about the things I used to enjoy doing.
He said something that really stuck with me: "Don’t stop doing what you love. If you stop, what will be the reason behind your happiness?"
When I got home, I started reflecting on how lucky I am to have so many hobbies. I feel very grateful to have things in my life that I genuinely care about. We all have something in our lives to be grateful for. It could be anything—money, friendships, relationships, career, health, or other things that bring us joy. As I thought about this on my way home, I even started crying. It feels wonderful to have something to be grateful for.
