People who can become friends must have something similar or complementary about them.

The people around me used to wonder why my best friend and I have been friends for twelve years, when she's a typical emotional thinker and I'm a typical rational thinker.

Her emotions are extremely unstable, while mine are extremely stable, sometimes even appearing cold.

So whenever anything happens, she likes to ask me. Until today, when she asked me to go play pool with her.

I asked: When did you learn to play pool?

She said: It's all for work.

Me: I thought it was a new hobby of yours.

She: Any hobby that can't generate value is meaningless.

That sentence really struck a chord in my soul. Looking back, I played Honor of Kings for work too.

All my hobbies are for learning more—studying psychology, studying games, even watching TV shows, I only watch mind-bending dramas, detective stories, spy thrillers, business dramas...

We're always on the path of striving, feeling anxious. Sometimes we actually want to stop for a bit, but we just can't stop. We have rest anxiety.
