HEEEEYYYYYY YOOOOUUU GUUUUYSSSS(If anyone gets this reference they are a certified legend)
Happy Thanksgiving š¦š Everyone. I hope youāre all having a wonderful time whenever or wherever that is, and regardless of if you celebrate this holiday
Iāve been thinking a lot lately and I have some things Iād like to say
You see Iāve always attempted to make this community one where people could submit their questions, and engage freely. Something which seems to have succeeded. However, Itās seems lately projects have often started piling up, not just within the community, but also my personal life
As the result of these stressors, I feel that I am beginning to approach burnout, and In order for me to preserve my well-being, somethings going to have to give. Unfortunately, after extensive considerations, iāve concluded that I should avoid taking up any request for analyses
Just to be clear, I donāt resent anyone for asking these types of questions and actually appreciate the willingness to engage. Some of the biggest revelations Iāve had about myself and my writing have come from from me answering these types of inquiries, and thatās only within less than a years worth of time
Overall, I feel that theyāve made me more intelligent, considerate, open minded and sociable than I was before. Still I canāt help but feel that my attention should be directed elsewhere for some time, even If that means stepping away from something that I love
This doesnāt indicate that I wonāt engage with the community at all, rather, It means Iām going to set a few ground rules from now. To put It succinctly I will only be taking request for rankings, list & distributions. Nothing else
I might still make an In depth comment from time to time, but only when I have the and truly feel compelled to do. Sorry to disappoint, but I think this is probably for the best
Now onto my second message
To be honest, I just wanna say what Iām thankful for this year. While Iāve received many blessings throughout this year alone, I think the people Iāve gotten to know rank amongst the highest things on that list
@TheT-DOG_EDITS a fantastic up-and-coming editor who has always respected my takes no matter how much they differ from his own, has a great sense of humor and never ceases to having an inviting atmosphere within his community. His channel being a model for how I want to approach my own one day
@errwhattheflip an OG of writing comparisons who somehow finds the time to interact every facet of this community and to whom Iāve built a great rapport with. He has always indulging my comparative inquiries, whilst also asking many questions of his own, to which I always enjoy answering. Their approach to conversation, analysis and debate being the main inspiration for my own
@Kanedgy-Badman whom has always been a delight In every Interaction, reignited my passion for editing, writing, art and just my creativity In general, with his distinct style and shared dream of becoming the greatest writer of all time
@MC_Guy whoās had a harrowing life full of unbelievable hardship, yet still finds a way to remain kind and strong In the face of suffering that wouldāve turned many cynical and cruel. The living embodiment of the Indomitable human spirit, who has always inspired me to never give up and reminds me to never stop growing
@Vā-L who may very well be the most intelligent person Iāve ever had the pleasure of conversing with in my entire life. His opinions, always being intently conveyed, intellectually sound, interesting to read and insightful. Theyāve not only inquired about my ambitions as a creative, but also challenged my capabilities as an intellectual. Their honest assessment of my shortcomings always helping to keep me humble
And last, but not least, @Newoldtokyo, my best bud in the entire community who has never ceased to amaze me with his kindness, and has never not once brought a smile to my face
Equal parts, considerate, and curious, they have always made me contemplate my words and evaluate my thoughts. Whilst giving many of hopeful regards and words of wisdom along the way
Iām not sure Iāll ever be able to convey how much you guys and every other member of this community has changed my life, but Iād be damned If I didnāt at least try.
So well and truly, from the bottom of my heart, thank you for every bit of time spent common penned, and thought sent my way, because without them, Iād be a far less wise, intelligent, and mature person today
I wish the best for all of you and hope our journey together continues for long after our time In this community
