Does everyone get “vibes”?
HELLO WORLD! it’s been a while.. it’s been 2 weeks of internet silence over here, and it is so because it’s also been hard, hard to keep up with what’s happening in the world and not feel distraught and also because it’s been hard for me to keep myself together with work, stress.. you know the mundane stuff we all go through from time to time.
In any case, ‘been shuffling a lot of ideas in my head as anxiety, I guess many who struggle with that would know, is the best for that (can’t keep focus on anything for more than a few minutes, dozens of minutes at best"). And most of the stuff coming up was again related to content consumed online of course, like this Netflix, TV show Diagnosis that I had been binge watching, that eventually got me into a spiral of reading scholar articles on Google about genome sequencing to understand the root of rare symptoms and diseases that some people in this world struggle with, that we don’t even know much about.
Last weekend I was barely able to get out of bed and walk outside for a bit and as I was walking around the city, streets I’ve walked a million times before, I was getting these feelings and it’s just intriguing how our brains work on associating certain feelings to colours, smells, temperature, weather conditions in general. So I’d get these flashed of feelings somehow associated with something in my past but could’t really pin-point it by just feeling the breeze against my skin and on my face crossing the street… and I though to myself “I get this <vibe> … But what are these vibes, how to even begin to explain them or classify them? I’m sure many people get these it’s just so difficult to describe in words…
Like for example does Indie music make everyone feel like it’s chilly outside and they want to throw a sweater on and watch the sun set slowly and just stare at it .. there..in silence and deeply sigh at how magnificent grand and scary life is all at the same time?
And in the same way I have certain feelings when listening to hip hop music like of struggle and toughness… Grey color makes me think of something in my childhood that can’t be expressed in words :)
And like saying that it smells of summer or smells of spring or winter, just has something… does something for me and it makes my mood be one way or another without not even realizing it.
I guess humanity is just weird-I am still figuring myself out as a human being…
