Almost Unchanging obsessiveness

If you go into the things I was obsessed with while younger, it was something like this:

  • Science Fiction
  • Music and audio electronics
  • Art and photography
  • Computers and electronics
  • Space and aviation

These days, the list is something like this:

  • Science Fiction
  • Music and audio electronics
  • Art and photography
  • Computers and electronics
  • Space and aviation
  • Bicycling and other wilderness exploration

Now, one of my friends who I’ve been friends with for a decade commented a few years ago about my changing obsessions. About how after college I stopped doing music and became a photography person. But, as it turns out, that just took an almost decade-long break for various reasons.

Really, the only change over time is that I realized that we were not evolved / created / touched-by-his-noodly-appendage to sit inactive all day. I liked the bike before, I liked wilderness exploration before, it’s just that I realized that I was much happier if they were an essential part of my life.
