Three Conversations
Conversation one I had tarried at work, stealing a few minutes talking to someone who would soon be on the other side of the world, rather than racing home. Since our conversations always seemed effortless and those opportunities drawing to … Continue reading

The Woman Who Loved Chopin
I find it awesome to meet someone with passion. I don’t always “get” what they’re passionate about, but I respect it. I find it powerful and somewhat infectious. You can see the energy rippling off them in waves. Sometimes it … Continue reading

It Has to Mean Something, Doesn’t it?
I was sitting in the subway, having gotten a seat because I was riding during non-peak hours. To my right, many empty seats and a scattering of passengers killed time their own way. Mine was to bury myself into Bret … Continue reading

Bookstores: An Interesting Place to Meet.
What is it with me and bookstores? What is it about these places, above all others, which presents me with so many interesting people? What cosmic force finds its intersection in the place of literature. You heard it from me … Continue reading
