People and I

I have always had a love-and-hate relationship with people.

Not with humanity- oh, I love humanity. I love what we have achieved, what we are capable of, our vulnerability. Show me a stranger, and already my heart reaches out for them as my mind tries to unravel the idiosyncracies of this individual. I love all people, but truly only in the abstract. Or rather, I love them on the basic level of being....well,  human beings.

But knowing them is another story entirely.There are 2 types of people I have distaste for:
1. Those who have no patience for other's secret souls
2. Those who choose to act like they don't have one.

Maybe it's just some people's personalities I don't like. And don't get me wrong- I have no prolem with differences. I get that what make me tick, may not work for you. It's the people who don't accept these differences that erk me.

I dont know about you but all the cool kids are doing it.........

TRAVELLING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Catherine and I have a plan.......as always. We've planned a euro trip for this summer.....Northern Ireland-France-Spain-Greece. And then wherever it is that we go to last, we will do something crazy....it was my idea really- to write a long letter and bury it in the earth (probably at a landmark or something). And then years later when we are married with kids and all, we will go SEPARATELY to that same spot to dig up the letters and read them. Aren't me and my best friend so original?? (hint).
