So. Sam's introspective post has inspired me to write a post of a smiliar nature. I don't have nearly as many LJ friends as Sam does, although I have quite a few. Most of them, I have met in real life at some point or another. The rest, like Jemmers, really got me thorugh some hard times just by being people I had never met who I could relate to so

I'm coming to understand love, as it can be for me. I'm finding a lot of what I like about myself has been motivated by love I never knew. The reason I've tried to be a good friend in the past, and am now trying again, is because I love all my friends. I love you among them, even if you're far away and I haven't seen you in +years, I still care. Don't worry, this isn't creepy internet person love, or vast pining love, this is sam's love for friends, that includes things like chik nuggets and yumi yogurt and movie days. I miss you, and we really ought to all hang out again some day. It'd be nice to just think about what is good nowadays, instead of what is bad and past.
Maybe I can start repaying my debt.

Ok, so maybe we can kill three birds with one stone... a sawed-off semiautomatic stone with a laser sight and built in rocket launcher... I'm going to go down to Santa Cruz sometime soon to visit my step-family, and I'm thinking maybe the day before I visit them, we should get a big group of people to go down and visit Sam, and we can hang out on the beach boardwalk or something, and then hang out at Sam's, or do whatever, go downtown, have fun! Sound like a good idea? 'COURSE it's a good idea! Ok, so email/call me.

sounds awesome to me. Also, I'm gonna put my schedule changes in my journal sometime tonight so everyone can see my situation as it stands.

pitiably perplexed and speaking for myself

So what would I be pitiable or annoying? maybe even disgusting. Oooo. I like how that sounds. Bowel moving, stomache wrenching disgutsing. Yeah. At least its not "morally reprehensible". A description so broad and discerning the question that begs to be asked is what possibly could be questioned of it. How could one argue? And to what recompense? Such sagacity delivers the naive from evaluating the one who evaluates. I dislike being delivered but am too naive in my negligence.
Love blinds. Love binds. Love makes contradictory fools of us all.

i dont htink you were ever either while he saw you often... otherwise we wouldn't have seen you so often now would we have?
silly billy.

and yes. i think more than anything else, love overwhelms.

Re: pitiably perplexed and speaking for myself

Yes and no. I am sure there was some entertaining motive. It only makes sense. And now that you don't see me often? I am sure a mix of all the above. But whatever. The way things disperse makes me wonder what really was the driving force. Just boredom, modern malise as one would say? Or do we not really put a value to friendship when the scale leans towards solitude. But than, I am a strong proponent of solitude.
And yes I am a silly billy.
at least there are those people who are your friends when you are at your worst and wierdest and when things change, the gloves come off, and we pretend like we don't know who the other has become. when really nothing has changed, the surface just reflects differently, the light gets caught in the eye and we don't recognize.
You come visit me.
