My model: my Mom🥰 (not AI)

Yesterday I shared a picture of this new beaded necklace on Facebook that I had made the other day. Then I continued scrolling and browsing through social media, while I noticed that the same experience came to me again and again. As if I had seen it all before... Or it would repeat itself again and again, absolutely regardless of the subject and topic of the post. Some people were selling jewelry, some were selling welding work. Yet they were all in the same style. The mood, colors, and columns of the ads and posters were almost the same. Maybe even the font was the same everywhere. Then I quickly got bored and took my finger off the screen.

Content generated in a few seconds by AI has flooded the internet. And I realized that I am tired. I have only one life to live and I do not want to see the whole world through the "fairytale" glasses of visual phenomena that want to look like synthetic puppets! Where is the person, life, individuality, vision and the sweet fruit of manual labor? The need, the expectation and the appreciation, recognition and evaluation of each other's work?

I prefer to follow and like content that reflects the creator's personality, the time they put into it, their sense of beauty, and their efforts. Because it's refreshing to see when there's life in the pictures! Freckles and pores, strands of hair, and somewhere, maybe invisibly, even the laughter or chaos that surrounded the process.

For me, it's beautiful to see the jewelry made by my own two hands around my Mom's neck (an emotional attachment, of course), but I also see myself in it - the person I am now. Even if it's not perfect!

Today, I am no longer interested in the expectations of the algorithm, in mass posting. I do not want to live my everyday life according to rules that force me into a meaningless competition and in the process undermine exactly what can give meaning: the soul and the individual.

Because the fire cannot be lost from (wo)man! Because the operation cannot be completely mechanized! Live with reason, Work with reason! Decide from the heart :)

We would look good if everything in life came easily and instantly! Like growing fast, making huge income, gaining a lot of followers. But why bother with something we didn't originally want?! That would be pure madness!

A huge hug to all those who, in this stripped-down, often beige-and-white world, bravely add their individuality - as the most important ingredient - to their work!
