I'd like to meet:
[recent conversation]
me: there really aren't many people like us are there?
michael: i consider us so lucky to be in that club.
passionate, spontaneous people. present, real people. people who don't mind being ordinary....or aren't afraid to be a complete dork and embrace themselves...because that is rare and therefore...special. beautiful. people who inspire me to be better. thinking people...questioning people. people who see...and love...and question...and work on life and themselves. people who are peaceful, awake and non-complacent. thoughtful people who also feel this energetic, internal charge to inspire change. to be the change we want to see. i'd like to talk to you.
um. i'm not really here to meet people. i don't have time in my life for more friends. but if you're one of those rare, incredible, unique people...i will find/make the time for you.
oh. and that man in the times square subway near the N/R/W that sings 'everything is gonna be all right' late at night. i always hear him when i need to hear that the most. if i could ever find him...he, i would give money to. or hug. i think about him a lot.
