My 'Like' Images @ Like Museum [Project Participation Article]

I am writing this after returning to work.
I started note to keep a record of my studies. Before I knew it, I began writing about my realizations during my leave and return-to-work life. This time, I am posting this article for Hiiro-san's 'Like Image' project.

Note, which started as nothing more than a study record

This was before I took my leave.
I had a habit of recording things I learned or researched at work, such as operation procedures and output results, by copying and pasting or taking screen captures.

I did this to save the trouble of looking things up again later and to share them with my team members.

I was also doing this for self-study, but storing information on my computer lacked searchability. So, I looked for a blog service and ended up at note.

When I first started using it, I never even imagined that a time would come when I would be sharing things about myself.

Most settings remain at their default values

Since I started using note with that background, I knew the 'Like' button existed, but it was something unrelated to me.

I experienced two leaves and returns to work. During my second return, I started writing my current return-to-work diary as a form of training.

However, since the starting point was for 'record-keeping,' most things, including the images and messages that appear when someone clicks 'Like,' remain at their default values.

The nervousness of that time became the trigger for changing the words displayed for 'Like'

Once I started writing my return-to-work diary, I began to notice other people's articles. Still, at first, I only read them.

In the midst of that, I encountered an article where I thought I would try pressing the 'Like' button for the first time. I felt a deep sense of empathy.

'Is it okay for someone like me to press 'Like'?'
'Isn't it strange? Is it okay?'

When I pressed the 'Like' button for the first time.

I was very nervous.
I tried to stop many times.
Even so, I wanted to convey my empathy in some form.

With that feeling, I pressed the 'Like' button with a 'Here goes!'
I still remember the nervousness of that time.

And I thought.
Perhaps the people who pressed 'Like' on my articles also overcame that same nervousness to press it.

When I think of it that way, I want to convey through the reaction message that I am happy that they even tried to press it.

In this way, my 'Like' images became these two.
The images are the default ones from note, though.
I set the words I wrote with those thoughts in mind.

It's nothing special, but I've set my 'Like' image by adding a small message to the default note image.
It's not anything grand enough to be displayed in an art museum, but I just wanted to say that I set it with my 'feelings' included.

I wrote this article because I wanted to participate in Hiiro-san's project.
It's wonderful to see everyone using such creative and well-thought-out images.
