the worst part of being a human

It’s the marketing. The damn marketing. The constant attempting to convince others that our

art
style
humor
product
core being (no big deal)

is enough for someone to

spend money on
date
believe in
laugh
love

And some will say, you don’t need them.
But we do.
Who are we kidding?
We need them to believe something about us that we think we might believe ourselves.

And if we don’t believe it
They’ll never believe it
And if they never believe
We won't believe it.

And so, we just keep on this endless circle of convincing ourselves and others
We’re enough.

And if there’s anything harder, convince me of it.
