When I was younger I used to create so freely and enthusiastically. Everyday I was making something new and was quite proud of many of the creations. I would only show them to a few supportive friends, and occasionally to other peers at group events.
Then something happened, I assume social media. Now I dislike almost everything I make, and I've almost stopped creating many times because I feel like I'll never live up to what I want people to think of me.
Artificial pressure created by an artificial need to share everything online and be judged me artificial critics. I wish I could find the confidence I had before.

Nice!
Thank you, Anna, your words are always poetic
Dear Anne,
I also love photography and poetry very much, so my sympathy for you is an eternal given.
Take a look at my work...as an exchange of thoughts and glances.
Kind regards
Antons
