That Nothing seems like Everything

Not in dollars, sometimes work done with no results, not even a 'thank you' seems like nothing earned. I do not know how many of you would agree with me, but sometimes everything cannot be matched with money.
There's something called luck, something called gratitude.
It's not a ctrl+alt+del that is always working with us. The minimum amount of acknowledgement is enough to make someone's day.
'Pay it forward'. Kindness begets kindness. Violence begets violence. Work begets more work. By the end of the day when you retire, you wonder how much have you earned.
Your goals for the next day, and their fulfillment is what defines your achievements.
Expectations are calculations gone wrong.
So when work is done without expectations and nothing is achieved despite you giving your best, it's nothing that is not achieved. There's something achieved in there.
A better version of You.

This is such a profound and true perspective
You put it perfectly—when work isn't acknowledged, it can feel like "nothing," but what you gain in character and inner growth is truly "everything."
I've definitely been there, giving my best and hearing crickets in return
But you're right, coming out of it as a "better version of yourself" is the real reward. Thanks for this thoughtful reminder!

You see it comes with a lot of observation and self reflection after tearing yourself out from the experience. Again, the only consolation is that it was meant for you, for your growth. Peace lies in the acceptance of this truth.

@mytunemagic That's a profoundly wise perspective. Finding peace through acceptance truly is the ultimate form of growth.
