just some things i've been thinking lately

its amazing how one person can leave you totally affected. leave you with a new profound perspective on things. alter previous notions of life and loneliness. make you doubt the very world as you see it. i'm sure the same could be said about a book or a song, and i would probably agree if either were that powerfully persuasive and well worded. but a person, more than a book or a song, can tailor themselves to you. they can respond, and relate, and a book and a song are mere happenstance when they coincide with life's daily dramas. until recently i never realized the power of one person, it got me thinking, could i have ever had that kind of profound effect on someone else?
we go through life, seemingly beaten down each day. too often looking at the big picture and feeling insignificant in the scheme of things. and then you have moments where you stumble across something entirely different. whether it be the company or surroundings, possibly a combination of the two, you suddenly feel enlightened. closer to a god or a religion or a being. the future doesn't matter, nor does the past. but your there, and you feel free, careless, infinite.
