You Can Take The Girl Out Of The City But You Can’t Take the City Out Of The Girl
Living in a city makes me feel anonymous…although still very connected to the hustle and flow of the everyday life that builds a narrative of the times in which I live. Even if I don’t always know my neighbors intimately, there is a collective understanding of belonging to somewhere and something bigger than me, a place where I can experience and explore, access culture and education just by walking out of my door and strolling down the street. I find it’s so simply explained by the lyrics of The Beatles song “Penny Lane,” surprisingly a song about a vibrant suburban community, which always gets me nostalgic about the feeling and experience of living in New York City and being a New Yorker through and through. Proximity and empathy are everything when building community.
Living in the much less vibrant suburbs of Florida also makes me feel anonymous…although with none of the connectedness to the hustle and flow of everyday life and times…yes, there is nature and more nature and yes, it is beautiful as I’ve always known and expected…but sometimes too much of a good thing is just too much…I crave experience, connectedness and the type of enrichment I can only find through the accessibility to the life and culturally affirming activities that suburban life does not easily provide and is not structured to promote when distance is not easy to traverse and opportunity is almost always out of reach. I find that individuality here is less about being an individual within a cohesive network of individuals but rather about being disconnected individuals. Sadly, I feel it seems to promote a severely discordant sense of harmony. While I am not exactly a stranger to the suburban experience having had access to it for short intervals at different times in the past, this full time suburban experience has made me feel so much less connected to my community with few opportunities and options, a feeling that I never experienced in New York City despite being one among millions.
