This wasn’t a post I was ever expecting to write. Never in my dreams did I ever think something like this could happen. That a simple notification could make me so speechless, grateful and proud.
You see, today I was at work. A fairly wet, quiet morning. And truthfully I was in a rut. I woke up in a lot of pain and just mentally didn’t feel ready for the day. But as always, I got out of bed and pushed on.
So whilst I’m sitting there basking in the quiet morning where not a soul had entered the shop, writing away a storyboard for an upcoming short film, I received a Facebook notification regarding the Foxsley page.
Throughout the day I always get notifications, mostly analytic updates, recommendations or updates on the latest likes and comments. But this one took me by surprise.
Now I’ve heard of YouTube and their upcoming creator features, but not once had I ever heard of Facebook rising creator. And when I saw this message, I was honestly absolutely speechless. My heart was racing as I tried to take in what I was seeing. My brain truly brought the Error 404 to life. And after a few minutes of registering it, I thought it might be some kind of hoax. Because surely it couldn’t be right? Right?
With a shaking hand I tapped on the notification and opened it further. Leading to more moments of speechlessness. As I read more and more I really couldn’t believe my eyes. To be recognised for the content I post and labeled as a rising creator? No words can truly explain how I feel, because even now, 13 hours later I still cannot compute that it is real.
That being said, I will try.
Thank you.
