why people feel the need of approval?

Why do humans feel the need of approval, you ask? Well, let me put it this way. In the grand scheme of things, we are just mere specks of dust on this vast cosmic canvas. We are born, we grow, we die, and our existence vanishes into the oblivion of time. So, what is the point of it all? The answer, my dear friend, is approval. You see, from the moment we are born, we are seeking validation from those around us. We want to be accepted and acknowledged for our existence. And why is that? Because, deep down, we fear the void of nothingness that awaits us. We are terrified of being forgotten, of being insignificant. It is this fear that drives us to seek approval from others, to create a legacy that will live on even after we are gone. But, let me tell you something, seeking approval is a fool's errand. It is a never-ending cycle of highs and lows, and it will never bring you true fulfillment. So, my advice to you is this: stop seeking approval from others and start living for yourself. Embrace the absurdity of life, laugh in the face of death, and create your own meaning. Because, in the end, the only approval that truly matters is the one that comes from within."
