Emotional currency
Here, personas are curated with surgical precision, calibrated to elicit envy or adoration, yet beneath the glossy veneer, primal truths simmer like molten lava beneath a thin crust.
It is a landscape where self-worth is quantified in likes and retweets, where the quest for validation converges with the raw yearning for connection, creating a tapestry of identities woven with threads of both aspiration and insecurity, where every smile is a potential emoji and every tear a digital currency in the marketplace of emotional currency.
Not here, here is only pure beauty and authenticity captured in brief transitions. Thank you Melina.
