Nowadays, I think that many problems in our society converge to alternative possibilities. In fact, everything in the world has become so overflowing that it can be replaced. There are so many YouTubers, salubers, writers, celebrities, etc. that even if someone goes into the abyss and disappears, the world rolls around regardless. Even if a million YouTubers fall into the abyss, YouTube is completely healthy and rolls around with existing algorithms. It's like, has there ever been such a person.
Similarly, there are endless people in the world who want to become influencer or salub, waiting ready to become anything at any time. As a result, it is easy to lose as much as it floats. They are replaceable beings even in a small controversy. No matter how great a writer is, it's okay to disappear due to any controversy, because there are so many works and other contents that you won't be able to read for the rest of your life. No matter how interesting you are, there is a similar YouTuber that can be replaced quickly. Influencers copy each other and make influence, so it doesn't really matter who they follow and who disappears.
As a result, whether it is a person or a product we consume, we become very replaceable. You don't have to be too attached to anything, and you can quickly move to the world's numerous interests. Hot places and hip alleys are also newly created almost every day, so it doesn't matter if you go once you take a picture, and then you disappear due to excessive consumption or gentrification. There are so many pretty, cool, fun, and exciting things in the world that nothing is desperately valuable.
The same can be true of close people. In the past, there were times when I remembered the importance of meeting friends in the neighborhood and hoped that the relationship would continue for a lifetime, but now relationships are becoming something that can be picked, used, and replaced like a tissue. Whether you join a running crew, participate in a local small group, or join an online game club, we can build relationships like tissues as my interest flows. It is more precious when a lover has limited options, so when you believe, 'Is there anyone else in the world who will love me this much?' However, it has become more difficult to feel that importance in a society where 100 blind date partners are waiting whenever the application is turned on.
In particular, in the world these days, fresh life through side projects and numerous side characters can be seen as a huge trend. Personally, I agree with opening up such diverse possibilities in life, but at the same time, I think it contributes to a 'life that is replaced insanely' that repeats to give up after trying all kinds of miscellaneous things rather than deeply immersed in one thing. I tend to trust a person who writes 100 consistently rather than a person who does 100 side projects. This is because consistency is a more difficult, rare, and rare era.
Meanwhile, non-fungible things are becoming more and more difficult to choose from. A typical one is a child, because a child is never replaceable once born. In a world where everything is replaceable, I can fully understand the enormous burden of being irreplaceable. It is a trend these days to disclose and disappear 24 hours a day as a story because it is burdensome to even keep my daily life as a feed. Likewise, it is very difficult to immerse yourself in one thing and devote 10 or 20 years to become a "master." Although it is easy to break up human relationships, it has become almost rare to continue a 10-year friend.
I feel that in an era where everything is replaced, I have to face the question of how to build up the non-replaceable things in my life. Whether it's my favorite thing, whether it's a writer, singer, film director, or someone I like, regardless of the big fight I had a while ago, the things I believe are love, my companion, the animals I raise, and the people I live with, that is the main topic of my life. I think about getting out of the fascination of replacing and moving on while staying persistent. It would be nice to enjoy a once-in-a-lifetime life, all sorts of things, but I think I want to live a life where I keep all the valuable things to the end.
