Sorry. I didn't mean to imply that you can't like things equally.

I was projecting, I guess.

When I really love one thing, and I'm in that mood of being really all about that one thing, it's hard for me to like other things for a while there.

That's all I meant, really.

Oh you didn't Sunny!

Or if you did, I don't remember it registering.

I think I was talking to myself-that I realized I can like things equally.

I honestly don't think it had anything to do with you saying anything.

What you said makes perfect sense-I love things, and I don't let anything in on that space.

I don't generally like happy stories, so I don't know why I took to Frozen so much.

Maybe you like happy stories sometimes?

It's like me, I don't like country music, but sometimes there are country songs that I love.

I haven't seen Frozen, but I do hear that it's not necessarily as simple as being a happy movie.

I mean, Elsa goes through some bad stuff, doesn't she?

Before she accepts herself, I mean.

A happy ending doesn't mean there is no struggle along the way.

Yeah, I think you're right.

I need to stop seeing myself and my tastes in such absolutes.

Oh Elsa definitely goes through a lot, and Anna goes through a bit, too.

Definitely struggle. Near the end is when it gets the hardest for them.

It doesn't mean you like all happy movies.

Just that you don't dislike all of them.

You like what you like.

It doesn't mean that you don't know what you like.

Just that you can still be surprised sometimes.

That is the truth.

And I think I was surprised that I can sometimes be surprised.

Well, as I was saying in the other thread, most movies and TV shows are utterly predictable.

So I can imagine that being surprised is not something you can anticipate.

But it still happens.

Sometimes.

It really does.

I love getting surprised, and I appreciate it so much in my entertainment.

And the fact that I can see things are good and happy means a lot to me.

It's a really beautiful thing.

It's always good when we leave the door open for possibilities.

That's what I need to do-learn to leave doors open.

Once something is in my head, I pretty much close all the other doors.

I think we all do that.

I mean, that's what having tastes is, isn't it?

We decide that we like this, but not that.

I guess the idea isn't to change that exactly.

And it's not a question of forcing ourselves to do or try out stuff we don't want to either.

It's just to try whatever looks interesting to us, even when it falls in a category we wouldn't normally be interested in.

That's a great way to describe it-trying something that looks good to us, when it falls in a category we usually would not consider usually.

I watched Frozen for the 3rd time today.

We took Jojo to get her spayed, and I was anxious about her having surgery so Frozen was comfort.

It's good to have something that comforts you and that you use it.

How did Jojo do at the vet?

I hope she was good.

She was good.

Well, she was unconscious most of the time.

Since then she was way over active, and so we kept having to stop her.

Today and yesterday she's been slower, and sleeping a lot, which is really good.

I definitely enjoy Frozen bringing me comfort. Oddly, it's the same with Titanic.

Sometimes, what brings us comfort evolves.

Well, for me, that's how it works.

Inasmuch as things bring me comfort anyway.

So it's good that your go-to things for comfort are growing.
