You meet people

You meet people and a whole new world opens up for you. Take an innocuous conversation about likes and dislikes taking place in a little space between a couch and a wall. Say it was a party and the space seemed to offer a privacy/intimacy setting... after one or two sips, of course, life becomes definitely what you make it.

So there they are guy and girl, trying not to bullshit each other too much, or is it just enough... one guesses it depends on the intentions. In any case, life is being lived in small revelations behind that couch. Blue cheese comes up as a topic, some how sex becomes attached to the mouldy curds, meaning the conversation was progressing along nicely. But this is how you meet people, randomly, innocently and actually calmly. Who knows when life will boomslang at your ass and literally kill you? Actually don’t think about that, it’s a new year... and you know...like it was being said... you meet people.

After the blue cheese episode a life long friendship was forged, through those fires of passion... yes, anger... yes, love... yes... and err patience/forgiveness/understanding... Is that a fire? So on it goes, experience and experiences mould that friendship... this ship... it takes off, crashes (maybe), is renegotiated and sent out for another test run, maybe this time it flies... say around the world? Or sometimes it flies just as far as your email in box, Facebook page and sms inbox. Not necessarily all at once un/fortunately who knows...? Who knows if the heart is the pilot in this case, case being... you meet people.
Glad to have met you.
