Helping people find meaning and happiness in their lives, procrastinating.
People who aren't just kind to their friends, but to strangers too. People who smile for real, and often. Who answer your call as though they haven't heard from you in years, who really believe in those around them, who forget to breathe when they talk about certain things. Gamblers. People old before their time. Defenders of humankind.
Those who meet you for the first time as though they've known you your whole life. Alcoholics, romantics, ugly babies. who will hear crazy pipedreams and tell you why it's not so crazy, instead of why it will fail. Doers. The melancholic, the dramatic. People who are brutally honest, but with themselves too. Eavesdroppers. Folks who know all the words to their favorite songs, and then some. People who aren't impressed with money. Who don't sweat the small stuff. Who hum to themselves. Those who put people first, rules second.
People who smile when they're down. who bow their heads during meals and enjoy every bit of their food, until it's all gone. Passionate singers. Those who work hard to impress themselves with their own great deeds. Humble people. Grateful people. Those who've heard the sound of one hand clapping. Men and Women who live dangerously, who use the word love all the time but mean it, who treat children as equals.
Artists- the real kind. People with funny answering machine messages. Brave People. Emotional People. Warriors, and Warrior Poets.
