Music as my slight enemy

As much as I love my music, and wouldn't be able to live without it, I have come to realize that it is also my enemy. If it wasn't for music, I wouldn't be questioning where I want to live. Because it's when I listen to my russian music that it really hits me. Being surrounded by people who speak my native language, and only being surrounded by people like that. Because I remember those days I was in Ukraine and how amazing it felt. As a kid who knew no English, the pleasant shock that I was hit with when everyone around me just spoke. It was so comforting. Because of that, I almost threw away everything.


But then I remember everything else that comes with that.


Like this song straight up hits me like I'm still walking the streets of Kiev. And how it felt like my true home. My favorite song. When you really think about it, our favorites are just things that make us feel. По уши в тебя влюблён. Miyagi.
