If you’re the sort of person whose life can be changed by a song or a story, you’re the sort of person who can’t help but seek out those experiences, who can’t help but want to discover them for yourself. Because it’s all well and good to enjoy something that you know you’re supposed to enjoy...a painting, a book, a play. But it’s better somehow, richer, if you find it yourself. If your heart doesn’t see it coming. If you discover something yourself, it will belong to you in a way that other wonderful things never will. Knowing how that feels — to make that connection, that first contact — with a poem or a film or a philosophy, imagine how it would feel to connect with a place. An entire city. To discover it, and make it your own. Imagine a city that sneaks up on you. That unfolds with surprising cultural texture, with unforeseen depth. Imagine a city that is also a revelation, that isn’t exactly waiting for you to find it, but is here for you to find it, all the same. Imagine finding it. Striking it. Taking it home with you. If you’re the sort of person whose life can be changed by a song or a story — by a dance or a sculpture or a psalm — there’s so much for you to discover, for yourself, about yourself, in Omaha. |
