incurable humanist

"i've been thinking about you," he said.

i could tell he meant a kind of thinking that people long for. a kind of thinking full of possibilities and questions and adoration.

"i've been thinking of you too," i said truthfully.

but this time the thoughts weren't of possibility. they were of love and respect, but no romance.

for the first time i'm not confused about you. i know exactly how i feel. it makes me feel free and sad and encouraged and happy.


you were almost perfect, as so many of them are.

I haven't been around here in a while. I'm glad to see your posts have taken a more serious turn than they had previously been. I like the changes you're making. They're for the better, and they're visible. Glad we're friends.
