other People

You can pick your friends

and you can pick your nose

but you can't pick your friend's nose
____________________

Friends, strangers, romance, fights, reality checks, loneliness, family, love

so much is about love (the romantic version)

And we create it all, on our own, from our own devices, like we're building a machine and then purposefully adding new gears and reworking systems to make it run smoother, faster, more interestingly. Sometimes the machine breaks down, falls apart, even explodes. It's up to us to put it all back together again, or completely start from scratch..... at the end of the day though, we've made it all ourselves. None of it has to exist, we don't have to talk to that girl we think is cute, make that phone call, rush to be early, pick flowers, kiss on lips, be excited, be in love, piss people off, piss ourselves off, etc

None of this has to exist. We create it all! Boy or girl, man or boy, woman or man, we pour the pot, consider the risks and dive in. Maybe that's happiness, the messy swimming around of it all, and the energy we spend trying to sort through it, forever.

Overuse of speaking in threes? Probably.

(Sorry, this has nothing to do with Moving + Money Making)

So here's to our own devices.
and to the half-selfish half-selfless adventure of loving other people.
