I Like Good People

Like having conversations with people who actually look you in the eyes when you talk to them.

Or having cool-as-hell Harvard Poetry Professors recommend amazing poets that literally change your life. And then them be willing to give you personal "lessons" on the poems while you're working.

Or people who tell you your drinks are "scrumptous".

Or people who tell you you're funny and should write sitcoms when you're having a lonely day.

Or when you tell people you're reading Orwell's Down And Out In Paris And London and they say, "I read that when I was really down-and-out" and you understand exactly what they mean.

Or people who are older than you who tell you, "It's going to get better" in a very non-condescending way.

Or people who use the word "plethora" or "discombobulated" just when you were about to.

Or people who convince you that your weird toenail isn't so weird because they "have one exactly like it".

I need to keep my Good People glasses on more often.

PS. I loved when Shane Jones' blog was titled I Think You Are A Good Person. I wish he kept it.
