sometimes, it hurts to be different.
sometimes, you have to try new things.
sometimes, you have to step out of the comfort zone of your
favorite band that no one else has ever heard of besides old
people or your internet friends. i'm not telling you to
stop liking them, not at all.
love them as much as you want to and don't ever be
ashamed of it.
but sometimes, you have to take that extra step and take a
moment to check out that band or artist that everyone is
talking about these days. i'm not telling you to fall in
love with them, not at all. it's okay if you end up
hating them.
i'm just telling you to stop judging books by their
covers because they aren't the band or artist that got
you through some of the toughest times of your life.
have an open mind, because who knows, that one artist you
turn your nose up to now might become your new favorite.
sometimes, you have to relate to people in order to make new
friends and keep them.
sometimes, you have to avoid frowning upon popular things
because they are new to you and not what you are used to.
i mean, they're popular for a reason, right?
so get yourself out there and test out the waters to see what
everyone is talking about. and whether you like these waters
or not, you can return back to your cozy home whenever you
please.
but this is why sometimes, it hurts to be different.
and it's healthy that you expand yourself.
