May. 26th, 2005 09:03 amThings about 15 people on my friends list, unsignified. I might cop to nomen, if called on it, but then again, I might not.
1. I can generally point to the sun, whether it's obscured or below the horizon. I feel like I can point to you, similarly, though you tend not to move around as much, from my perspective. Though I have little "real" basis for it, I find that similarly comforting.
2. It seems like we just can't manage to get into sync with one another; maybe that's the way you want it?
3. If I ever start to get full of myself based on certain strangenesses and histories, you serve to give me a humbling sense of persepctive. I'm a little kid with a shiny rock that I can't put down, showing it to everyone who'll indulge me, but you carry the Hope diamond with you at all times.
4. Break out. Be free. Someone needs to, and you're so close.
5. I'm watching you get deeper and deeper into the groove you've cut, but it doesn't look comfortable; it looks like a trap that you can't get out of, and that makes me sad. You seem content enough, so I don't poke at you, but I do worry. I remember you being more free, and you seemed happier.
6. You're one of the nicest peole I know, and you have absolutely no clue how highly you're regarded, how many people carry a considerable amount of warmth for you around with them.
7. I worry that we are, or have, moved very far from one another, stretching a connection that I value very thin. It's probably a little silly, given the context. I'm really happy to see you thriving, even at this (nonphysical) distance.
8. You just rock. I want to be like you when I grow up.
9. I really, really, really want to meet you some day. It's kind of silly that we haven't, all things considered.
10. Don't be afraid to ask for what you really need, really want. Not only will you give the people who love you a chance to show it, you'll also be able to more solidly connect to them once you're more solidly connected to yourself and the world.
11. You seem to have found a way to avoid the strangling oversystemizing/overstructuring that I worry so much about. Maybe the secret is to intentionally sample far and wide, instead of focusing on going as deeply as possible as fast as possible, like I tend to try to do. You bear watching, for this as well as for the keenness of, well, just watching.
12. Time and effort do sometimes pay off, particularly when it's mutual.
13. I worry that you've half-heartedly given up many years ago, which is better than totally giving up, I guess, but it's not sustainable. Take some time to try and heal, try and get better. It seems like you're just going through the motions sometime, but the fact that you're (thankfully) still here suggests to me that hope is still alive in you, somewhere.
14. Can you still be one of my favorite people even if I rarely see you, and have really had little to no actual interaction with you over all these years? Obviously, I guess the answer is 'yes'.
15. You're so smart, so cute, so seemingly on the ball that I constantly vaccilate between internet stalkery attraction and deep, intense envy.
