sometimes when there is a lot of rain, i imagine myself being jirahya going to the rain village by himself. sometimes when im not sure about life, i become spike (cowboy bebop) with his famous quote of "whatever happens, happens".

it's like i have a collection of all the stories i read and all the anime i watched with me and i decide to act like them. what usually triggers me to pick a story is the environment and the events happening in my life.

i used to pick the wrong character sometimes, like guts from berserk, altho it was helping me to keep going, but was making me more depressed.

so i started to go with happier characters and BOOM! life looks better now! it still amazes me how the human mind can associate external experiences to itself and change.

the hard part? you forget you can pick a story and change your perspective. you get drowned in life, trying to finish the next task, just another day and i change...

you could start doing this as easily as finding your favourite character, putting them on your wallpaper, pfp and whenever life feels hard, try acting like them.

maybe this is all anime pfp twitter is all about.
