📌 ONE QUESTION FROM THIS LIFE
What was one thing I loved fully today, even if no one noticed?
📝ONGO's Reflection
Van Gogh sold a single painting in his whole life. We learned he was a genius a hundred years too late. Reading the letters he sent his brother Theo breaks the heart. Amid poverty, loneliness, and doubt, he sat before the canvas again every dawn — knowing no one recognized him. When we begin something, we first calculate who will notice. Van Gogh asks us — if not a single soul would ever know, would you still not do it? Standing before that question, what we truly love comes into sharp focus.
