whatever you're just getting into, whether it be photography, skating, painting, drawing, music, making maps in hammer, etc!
embrace the childlike, new vision you have of things. right now, it's just you and your feelings/impressions.
not bothered by knowing exact names for techniques, exact parameters, exact ways of doing stuff.
i'm sure that many people in your field/hobby of choice *wish* they could experience those first few times.
just think about all the times you saw people wish they heard a song for the first time again!
we are the music makers, the dreamers of dreams.

gratitude is spilling out of me that we live in a time where we can record anywhere and everywhere. art is all around you. listen to all of your dreams and the messages spell out.

i feel like a massive hypocrite writing this, but im gonna be honest..
the past year i've been constantly listening to/watching youtube videos and ig reels in order to fill the silence. just loads and loads of useless information and empty talks.
last night i realized that doing so has been keeping me from thinking about stuff, listening to music and in general, being productive. i was filling my head with useless noise so i wouldn't think. it ended up being a comfortable bubble of bullshit that was hard to break out of.
today i stopped the video, grabbed my notes of things i want to DO and played some music in the background. felt much better. i might relapseโ i have many times, but im tired of being a vertically scrolling thumb (again).

i used to ride my bicycle/take public transport all the time, but walking is really good actually! it slows down the wildness of modern life, shows you small things you would otherwise drive past. its all around a good idea if you have time to spare of course. great for calming down, thinking, good for relieving stress, good for meeting new people

going to the museums in my city, going to events, visiting art schools as a spectator to view their expositions
it gives me this.. je ne sais quoi feeling. like, euphoria and inspiration and hope in a weird combined way. thinking about art, talking about art - and by that i mean anything from jewelry to graphic design, paintings, poetry, (short) film and sculptures. just fills me with purpose unlike anything else.
im watching my sims be succesful artists and im like.. damn i wanna be that.
