Why It Matters

Dear Reader,

Pursuing fame and acclaim has been a long-standing desire, regardless of the avenue – whether it be academics, sports, or any other endeavor.

Unexpectedly finding success in an unanticipated field prompts reflection on the significance of any such recognition of this field or the others. While being acknowledged by faceless strangers may briefly satisfy the ego, the transient nature of their attention underscores the insignificance of external validation.

In the end, true fulfillment lies not in the fleeting acknowledgment of others, but in the pursuit of personal growth and fulfillment for the ultimate good.
