Comments have value worth paying for

There are countless articles on note.

Having someone find your article among them and open it.

And then, having them read it to the end.

I think that alone is actually an amazing thing.

For everyone, the time available is limited.

The time to read each individual article is also not that much.

If they read it and then even click the 'like' button, I'm even happier.

Furthermore, if they even write a comment.

Once it reaches that point, its value cannot be easily measured.

I believe that comments have value worth paying for.

No, in some cases, it might even have value that exceeds money.

This is because I believe a comment is proof that a reader's heart was moved.

I think people are inherently lazy.

Even if they read an article and feel something, I think it's rare for them to go out of their way to put those feelings into words and deliver them to the writer.

Opening the comment section, putting what they felt into their own words, and delivering it to the other person.

That takes effort, time, and emotional energy.

If a reader's heart isn't moved enough to overcome that 'hassle,' they wouldn't go that far, would they?

That is why I am so happy when I receive a comment.

Someone's heart was moved by an article I wrote, and that person put their heart into sending words back to me.

For a writer, there is nothing happier than this.

I truly feel, "thank you."

On note, I sometimes write by exposing my inner self.

I sometimes write about emotions I don't usually talk about with people, or thoughts deep in my heart.

That is precisely why, through comments, communication deeper than everyday conversation can be born.

The words I receive warm my heart.

It makes me want to write even better articles.

And that article reaches someone else again.

And then, I also want to return words to someone else.

In that way, from a single comment, the exchange of words gradually spreads.

People's hearts connect with one another.

This aspect of note.

I love it.
