What is something like a hobby or skill that you belive almost anybody should give a try, and what makes your suggestion so good compared to other things?

i feel like this is a descent question i guess.

    An instrument. It’s soul food and extremely therapeutic. Even if you suck, just learn to let it go. I find it’s really good for my mental health. I dunno, it’s music ya know? Lol

      I’m really grateful my parents pushed me to start playing the violin at 5, because it massively enriched my life. Even when I was bullied, abused, and miserable, playing my violin would help pick me up just a bit.

      This is the one I was looking for. Everyone should learn an instrument. The struggle is so rewarding. Music is such a natural means of expression; if you’re happy, depressed, in a mood, annoyed… all of that can be put into music. It can be the purest joy or the most intimate therapy.
