Nothing is better than a solo trip to a museum with a pair of noise cancelling headphones. Screaming baby?? shithead tourists?? you'll never even notice.
Everyone should spend a day with only art and music. It's good for the soul.

My roommates were gone yesterday so I did a whole day of working from home without using headphones. Meetings out loud, music out loud, youtube out loud. My ear drums felt so liberated!! Highly recommend

I think it’s sacrilegious to wear headphones outside because you miss out on eavesdropping, bird chirps, car window music, compliments, wind rustles. But on the subway it is loud and headphones help keep the screeches out. Also you never know when you want to just zone out to some Aphex or Cocteau Twins

I have had an ear infection the last couple of days and I literally cannot wear headphones without considerable pain. the unintended benefit of this is that I’ve had to walk my dog without music blasting and it’s so nice.
we have a cacophony of bird sounds in the late afternoon/evening here in Australia (magpies, cockatoos, lorikeets, plovers) and usually my music drowns this out, but having no headphones means I have to listen to the sounds and it’s low key beautiful. the sounds of nature are beautiful. noticing the birds is beautiful.
life is richer than we realise if we choose to notice and listen to the sounds around us instead of insulating ourselves from them.

definitely not!
Speaking from personal experience - I went from totally fucking off (working like 10hrs a week) to working as a carpenter for years. Then I got interested in random shit online and made the leap from carpentry to working in marketing/jack of all trades for tech experiments and companies.
I was 25 when I made the leap from carpentry to what I do now. I had no clue what the fuck was going to happen. I just felt like it was the right leap to make.

being open to seeing the small details and beauties of everyday life. I feel like trying to remind myself to view the world this way has helped with both happiness and creativity.
The world is filled with immense emotion and to be able to feel that is beautiful
