I'd like to meet:
Extrordinary individuals. Seekers. Writers. Artists. Creators. Do-ers and thinkers, I've had it with the talkers. Dwellers in the outer darkness. Those few I can learn from. Many of the people I would want to meet and have not already met are dead.
That Girl- the one with that spark- someone worthy who "gets it" and can keep up with and appreciate me-
UPDATE- FOUND HER.
