I'd like to meet:
People who think constructively about the world and do not get boxed into ideological conformity. People who pursue creation. People who know how to tell a good story. People who like dogs and who don't get grossed out when dogs kiss them. People with arched eyebrows. Someone with a bomb shelter in the back of their yard and a year's supply of powdered milk. Someone who transcends otherness. A strong woman with a wavy laugh. A little bird that will tell me secrets. A man without ulterior motives. A really sturdy carpenter.
