How do you Internalize an Anime?

When I see an anime that's great to me, it makes me want to create and it makes me want to be expressive. When you come across an anime that speaks to you personally, what do you do to internalize it, to make sure every aspect of its essence seeps into your being?

How do you digest its meaning and maybe even live by its messages?
Are you able to incorporate it in your life?

I hope that makes sense to everyone.
