How does one, in a generalized vacuum, discover intrinsic things they like to do when they have “gotten over” things they used to like to do?
-Lori
Lori, according to the Interwebs a generalized vacuum is hyperbolic, but, lucky for you, it has a finite propagation speed. Of course, that is probably not what you meant, so, I am going to assume you mean generalized vacuum in a metaphorical sense.
As a metaphor I infer this vacuum to be a homogenous friend group that isn’t introducing new experiences at a rate faster than the person is burning the old ones out.
Here are some actions to expand beyond the things you have gotten over doing.
Easy Mode:
- Try doing things you didn’t like the last time you tried.
- Tell a joke to someone you don’t know very well.
- Send the text “Dirty Message” to someone you haven’t spoken to in a while.
Advanced Mode:
- Go out to drinks with someone you don’t know.
- Buy some mint oil.
- Spend a few minutes putting things where they don’t belong.
- Surprise your lover by being drunk tingly and misplaced when they get home.
By the end of this experience you will probably either appreciate your old life or have introduced yourself to something new or painful or some combination of the four.
