Take On Three Unordinary Experiences Every Day

kawaiidaigakusei at 12:00AM, Sept. 21, 2015



Change is difficult. Decisions are made out of comfort and convenience because staying the same is safer. Anything that strays off the beaten path has a tendency to seem foreign. It feels like a strange sensation that makes the squishy parts of the brain uncomfortable.
