Or just in general getting to know someone.
For me it’s so interesting how you can go your entire life without meeting someone and once you do, you get to know about a whole other person, that had a life completely different than yours, and experiences that you might have had in common, but were lived in different contexts, places, with different people.
i think it puts in perspective how big life and the world really is, like how many different paths you can take in life.

it's not only fun but deeply moving, that connection we create together. listening to the words of someone you don't know. getting a look into another life, sometimes very different than your own, sometimes very similar. it feels like you're not alone. it feels like praying.

It’s nice to remember that the world is brimming with kind people. I by no means have lengthy conversations with them, but even a joke or an observation to the store attendant makes me feel like I am the sort of person who is casual about things. It’s fun and reminds me to get outside my (sometimes claustrophobic) bubble.

it controls our lives so much I think we forget that it’s actually in a little box of glass and metal and that WE are the ones who use it, not the other way around.
i wanna turn mine into a photo album, reclaim the purpose of it as a place to just share photos of nice moments whenever I feel like it. Fuck social media anxiety these are just little icons on my phone so who caressssss

prioritize seeing friends and family over your to-do list. since I live in another country, I learned to do that anytime I have a chance.
do I have this really important thing I need to do for uni? yes. will I do it? after lunch with my grandma and coffee with my friends, thank you very much. they might die, and my work unfortunately cannot.

whatever it is, and for whatever reason you have, do it even if you’re scared. Do it ESPECIALLY if you’re scared. Being scared means that it’s important, and if it’s important then well, you should do it !!!
