For the past couple of weeks, I’ve been feeling the overwhelming urge to expand. Mostly creatively, although I’ve also been feeling the need to absorb everything.

When I was younger, I didn’t really look for music I liked, I just listened to whatever my mom played on the radio in the car. Even when I started using Pandora, I never got involved in thinking about the people behind the music. I never even thought about searching for more music I might like. As a result, I’ve always felt behind in social and cultural development in relation to my friends. They know a lot of pop culture references and they went through that process of “finding themselves” way before I did.

Now, though, I’ve been getting more involved in what I consume. I’ve recently watched a lot of important movies, and it actually feels really fun to enjoy the same experience as everyone else. I’ve been feeling more open-minded. I haven’t been too stressed either, lately. It feels like things are going my way. ♦
