Discussion letting go of thing you like

[bloopbloop]

i've always had lots of hobbies and interests that are important to me and one thing i've been sorta good at is art, like digital art (mostly), i love doing fanart or creating characters/storylines and drawing for other ppl and learning in the process it's always been real fun, something i've been doing since i was like 8 years old, and one of the few things i could give myself credit for :D
and since i'm 99.9% sure i'm not turning back on my upcoming decision it makes me pretty sad to let go of the things i enjoy doing, including my art skill, it feels sad to just let it go to waste like that and not be able to do it again. I wanted to get so much better at it by learning from tutorials and seeing my progress and the reactions from people i draw for made me so happy and make lots of money from it but i can't anymore since yknow. i hope maybe i'd be able to regain that skill if i'm ever reborn or smth. anyone else feel the same way?

I have felt like this before, yes. I love art, and running, and surfing, and writing, and traveling, and hanging out with my friends. I love creating, and doing, and experiencing. Unfortunately I have no choice but to ctb. The way I deal with it is I think about it rationally: I won't be alive/ conscience/ able to miss anything. I won't be able to feel regret, or sadness, or happiness, or pain. I feel bad that my life, which had a lot of potential and beauty in it, is going to waste. But life can be cruel, and unfair, and unpredictable. I really wanted things to work out differently too, I get how you feel. I really hope that you are able to overcome this and live a fruitful and fantastic life. I wish peace on wherever this journey may take you

I understand you, i was trying at forex trading for a while and i felt that i was good at it and it was entertaining, it could have been a dedication but i lost all motivation. I would also have liked to travel and get to know different cultures. Maybe another time.

i get it i really do, i relate to every sentence you said. i think at this point in our lives the best thing to do would be to give yourself some time to indulge in all those things you love to the fullest before your last moments if you don't wish to change your mind like me. atleast that's what i'm doing lol !! it's like giving myself a month just to enjoy some things in life for a last time. i too wish you the absolute best, and a chance to free yourself from this feeling if possible and get back to loving life :)

i get you for sure, i also would've loved to travel the world and enjoy different cuisines and cultures ! i hope you find peace and meaning to maybe return to loving life and feel that drive of motivation again and do whatever u wanna do. whatever choice you may take i wish you the best

Yeah I feel you. It's just I have talent but creating characters for me takes a while. I'm self taught and not as skilled as everyone else.

 

[locked*n*loaded]

I have something going on like this. I've got lots of hobbies and interests, too, or should I say had lots of hobbies and interests, since I haven't done any of them in quite some time. So, in the process of tidying up loose ends in my life before I go, I started selling off projects and such that I know I'm never going to get to, or no longer have purpose in my life. Might as well let others who are interested and enjoy them have them. It's hard.

self taught over here as well! i feel you its def not always fun and kinda frustrating at times but theres always room for more practice. i find myself relying on visual learning when i'm lazy or feeling bad like this lol

Yeah I really am trying to enjoy myself as much a possible. It can be tough sometimes though, knowing what is waiting around the corner. I really wish there was another way but I am going to lose my vision, and with that the ability to do all the things I love and all the things I want to do. My decision is very much final but I am at peace with it. I hope that you are able to enjoy these last days, and that peace finds you at the end of the road. Best of luck, and lots of love

I use to love working out.

this is back when I wanted to get out and try to set a future for myself. I felt so good about myself I felt like I was doing something right

I use to only do pushups but I loved it and I got pretty good at them and than time goes by I just stopped I realize it really wasn't gonna do much.
It made me feel good and a bit stronger but that didn't help with my intelligence.

I was lacking alot of that since I didn't go to school at all and didn't know what to do for the future so I just let go working out since there were no point.
It hurt me to do that but It's whatever

I wish you the best OP. hopefully in a next life you can do everything you wish

i feel you, working out def makes you feel good and confident, i also used to have moments where i'd get super motivated to completely change myself and look and feel brand new but that was around a year ago. i'm sorry you fell out of it ik it mustve felt awesome at that time :( idk your story but i can say that intelligence doesn't come mainly from school, i'd say a very small amount would, and you can make up for what you didn't have the chance to learn over there. the internet or wherever is massive and full of knowledge and for me it's what made me a lot more knowledgable and aware of lots of things, you'd be surprised at the amount of ppl who graduate from tough majors and are super ignorant. anyhow,i hope maybe you could find it in yourself to gain that motivation back and thrive. whatever you may do i wish you the best!!!! and thank you for that last sentence, i hope so too :)

That made me smile.

you are right the internet can help me with gaining the stuff I need to know to live a hopeful life hopefully and it's what help me be as smart as I am today but it has ruin some parts of my life.

My life could very well change in the future if I put all this time and thinking and effort in it but seeing how the world is and what i've been through it's unlikely I would wanna try but I think that's okay.

Thank you for being understanding

GOOD LUCK!!! i'm rooting for u

I feel the same way. I'll miss being able to do art stuff and gaming even if I was never that great at either. If rebirth is real then I hope I can retain those same hobbies as well as tastes in things (at least some of them???). Though it's unlikely since I'd be a completely different person.
