The self portrait I think this list makes is that I like to listen, read and watch things that are made to make you feel something. If it’s sad I’ll cry if it’s meant to teach you something I’ll learn. Overall most of these are about being stuck somewhere in life and someone you love helping you out or finding it in yourself to overcome whatever is keeping you down. Paints a sad but inspiring picture.

Influences:
I picked a lot of books because even though I don’t think I read often I spread out different genres, from spiritual, to business, to entertainment form s because I am ver y curious person and I want to learn something new about everything. Like different life experiences like the diary of a wimpy kid. Then questions about life and how to get the most out of life. Then financial/business to figure out numerous ways to thrive in this world with money, Especially because there is a lot that people don’t know that I want to. Then with movies, I pick movies that are broad that had a different back story. Like dragon ball as an anime film that is unfamiliar. Then black acting films like creed, black panther and, 12 years a slave to show different angles of how black people have prospered. Then I have an old side like Lord of the rings and jungle book. But I just love a good story no matter how old the film.
