I do think it’s right to enjoy things, and I don’t think it cheapens the enjoyment to have efforted it there, at least to start (try smiling when you don’t feel like it until you do). I can’t help but feel that it’s a trap, finding your own hard-to-pleaseness a sign of intelligence. I can’t say for sure, but I feel that way. I think it’s good to be impressed. Or maybe not, actually, because of social media? Or maybe yes, especially yes, because of social media. Just because it’s easier doesn’t mean it’s bad. Or maybe the delight is in its badness. I was talking to someone the other day who said that Instagram as a platform is “cheap”.
