Or taking a break off of anything for that matter. I used to listen to music first thing off the wake up but got so used and numb to it. Took a break and just listened in interval made me appreciate it so much more.

Music is so easy to access. Sometimes its good to take a break. Makes you appreciate it more when you return to listening

While I love lots of music and have created way too many playlists, I always get fixated on the same five songs during a period of time, before inevitably finding new ones to be attached to (and “retiring” the previous ones into the void of my Spotify liked list).
I used to think it was a strange way to listen to music, especially since I can be so obsessed with a select # of songs and then just forget they exist, or only revisit years later. But when I do go back, or hear the songs play out in the wild, it’s so cathartic and bittersweet. I can remember the exact chapter of my life, how I was feeling at the time/what I was going through, and it reminds me how much time has passed and all the experiences I’ve had/the various people I’ve met (temporary or not). I can remember and feel the feelings, and then just allow it to fade back into the background.
I doubt I’m the only one listening to music this way, but if that’s not you, it’s a sentimental outlook to lean into!

I think when I was a kid I consumed too much American sitcom and got indoctrinated into thinking that drinking alcohol and shooting shit at the bar is the coolest thing ever. Like it can be if you have a healthy group of friends that are good chatter but lately it seems like that’s not the case. I miss hanging out.
