Keeping in touch with the things that help us feel alive – music, books, movies, even the theatre if, mysteriously, you are that way inclined – becomes a battle, and one that many of us lose, as we get older;
As we age, maintaining connections with the activities and art forms that invigorate us, such as music, literature, and film, often becomes more challenging. This struggle to engage with what once brought us joy can lead to a sense of loss, as many individuals find it increasingly difficult to keep these passions alive in their lives.
In "Books, Movies, Rhythm, Blues," author Nick Hornby reflects on how our interests in film, music, and literature can fade over time. He emphasizes the importance of these cultural experiences and suggests that staying connected to them is crucial for feeling vibrant and alive, despite the inevitable changes that come with age.
