✰ ─── a lot of people in this amino participates

ㅤ ㅤ ㅤㅤon events, be it as a simple participant

ㅤ ㅤ ㅤㅤor a part of event staff as an artist, editor,

ㅤ ㅤ ㅤㅤhelper,   translator,   verifier   or   even   an

ㅤ ㅤ ㅤㅤorganizer.                                                    

✰ ─── we all have this thing inside us that makes

ㅤ ㅤ ㅤㅤus   want   more and more pretty frames,

ㅤ ㅤ ㅤㅤmore pretty themes to match our frames,

ㅤ ㅤ ㅤㅤmore   pretty   bubbles    to   match,   more

ㅤㅤㅤㅤamino coins to buy more and more and

ㅤ ㅤ ㅤㅤ more things.                                                      

✰ ─── some of us spend hours, one after another,

ㅤ ㅤ ㅤㅤtrying to get more. some of us, as soon as

ㅤ ㅤ ㅤㅤwe wake up, we to chat and to check

ㅤ ㅤ ㅤㅤ''what's   today's   activity?''.    some   of   us

ㅤ ㅤ ㅤㅤforget to do our homework to paint a png

ㅤ ㅤ ㅤㅤsomeone gave so we can get the set.         

ㅤ ㅤ ㅤㅤ

ㅤ ㅤ ㅤㅤ

and now you tell me, how do you feel?

ㅤ ㅤ ㅤㅤ

ㅤ ㅤ ㅤㅤ

ㅤ ㅤ ㅤㅤ

ㅤ ㅤ ㅤㅤ

ㅤ ㅤ ㅤㅤ

ㅤ ㅤ ㅤㅤ

do you feel tired?

overwhelmed?

anxious?

ㅤ ㅤ ㅤㅤ

i'm not saying we should stop doing events. i'm asking you to take a time for yourself. pay attention to how your brain is feeling, to how your heart is beating. pay attention on the way you breathe.

have a good night of sleep.

eat something healthy and delicious.

take a walk on the park next to your house or visit the mall.

clean your room and sit back to relax a little.

some of us are so addicted to doing events, that we forget that our body and mind need rest. that we need energy to wake up feeling well the other day.

if you're a helper in an event, you probably had these moment where you felt you had to do something. that you must do your max, you have to be there at all times. and let me tell you, you don't.

if a participants makes you sad or harrass you, block them, remove them from chat and close the app. take deep breaths and go do things that makes you happy. don't waste your mental health on an event.

if the staff of the event you're helping is bad, not treating you nicely, leave. you don't have to go through this for a set. you don't need to swallow all the bad stuff they've been doing because you ''need'' a frame and a bubble.

if you're a participant (or a helper), you don't have to be in events that things you don't. you don't have to be in an event that uses AI, that have their set traced or that has people with bad reputation on the staff.

if you're a participant, you don't have to spend hours on a scarvenger hunt that is too difficult to you, or a maze that makes your eyes hurt and gives you headache, you don't.

you are more important than an event. take care of yourself.

you don't have to rage on an event that is obviously bad or criminal, just report and ignore it. you don't have to do an event that you think is unfair and difficult. you don't have to keep your set that you spent hours working on in an event that tries to gatekeep it.

you are the owner of your life

i wish one day to not see any other person sufferimg emotionally because of an event. because it's not worth it. you deserve more than this.
