I've loved cr1tikal for years now. Not often does he post a video relating to his life, but when he does, I always remember what a kind and amazing person he really is. You'd never really realize it if you simply just watched his other videos. I was always amazed by the fact that instead of taking the profit he gained from YouTube for himself, he gave it to charity. I know some other YouTubers donate, but I can't think of one besides cr1tikal who gives every single penny of what he has earned to charity. So hearing about what's happening in his life literally brought tears to my eyes. I completely understand why he'll now be taking 50% of his profits for himself. Some may think he just doesn't want to work hard, but I completely understand where he is coming from. Working a dead end job and being trapped by labor is certainly no way to live, especially when you're lost in life. He's not a sellout, and I won't think of him any differently for doing what he's doing. In all honesty, I think for the time being, he deserves 100% of his profits, but of course he's too good of a guy to do that. That's why I love him.

Not Good Enough
On occasion, whether it be initiated by someone or something, or because it just simply happens, I get this dreadful feeling that my actions and my life, no matter how hard I try, mean nothing. I want to be good at writing considering the fact that it is the one subject I actually enjoy and can accomplish. Yet, I feel like even my writing is inadequate. I can do it, but I can't do it well enough to be anything special. I want writing to fit into my career in some form or another and am even going to college for it, but at the same time, I feel like it will be a waste of money because once again, I'm not good enough. Although I have nothing against it, I don't want to live a life attempting to survive on a minimum wage job that I don't even enjoy, but at the same time, I feel like that's what I'm going to end up doing anyways because I'm not good enough for anything else. Honestly, if that's the case, I don't really find a point in trying. I know this seems like a rather extreme answer, and I get that it seems incredibly stupid, but it's just the way my mind works. Even though I know this, I still can't change my thoughts on the matter. I don't know what to do. I push myself to do better all of the time, yet it never ends up working, or does it? Do I just perceive myself as not being good enough, or is it the truth?
