I find that I'm more aware of trees and flowers now that a) I have a garden and b) I use Instagram and post a lot of pictures of various growing things. They're such bright spots in the day.
Listening to whole albums. I just like going on a whole journey with an artist instead of hearing random songs like on the radio.
I do this, but I find increasingly that I listen to whole concerts, where again it feels as if the artist is taking you on a very specific journey.
I agree with what you say about Dreamwidth — having that built-in audience helps make it feel worthwhile, and because I tag things very deliberately (and excessively), it's easy for me to go back and get a glimpse of my past life. I do keep a paper journal as well, but with no pressure to do so consistently, and I find that works well.
