does anyone else feel like their life experiences broadly speaking can be separated into categories/vibes?
for instance, i’d group together being on my roof, freedom, summertime, talking with friends, being outside, city lights, driving, frank ocean, etc. together. but they could also be grouped with other things and make up a different vibe.
the reason i’ve been thinking about this tonight is because i was thinking about how long life is and how many experiences happen in one’s lifetime. life is _so_ long. my grandma lived through world war ii!!!! isn’t that wild? and i can’t comprehend how long that is or what it’s like to have lived that long — she can, i can’t (at least until i live that long, knock on wood). that’s reaching the limits of empathy/whatever, but that’s another topic.
anyway, we have all these experiences in our lives right. and eventually they meld together more and more, so like far in the future i probably won’t remember the day to day of my life right now, but i might remember general vibes.
so in other words these vibes are like how our brains associate clusters of thought or information i guess. but i also wonder if there’s some way we can use them to our advantage! like is there some way i can specifically avoid vibes preemptively if i know i won’t like them? is there some way to remove bad vibes from my life?

it’s so weird to me how many different emotions and feelings one can have in the confines of a single day, or single hour, or in a handful of moments. i think social isolation/pandemic vibes have increased most ppls tendency to have mood swings and such for sure, but it’s still true even without that. it just seems to me like life can be so taxing sometimes!
