most of this type of 'stuff' is true about everyone i think, but nobody admits it. i absolutely love you for your honesty, sam, in every moment, even when you think you're not being honest or accountable, you come through, whether it's on livejournal or with me when we're talking, or to someone else when you're talking to them or not talking to them. and that encourages me to do the same, and then we just keep doing it a lot with one another. it's all real and wonderful and i so fucking wish more people were like you. then i'd be happy more often, and i think everyone would be more happy more often, because then we'd realize that we're more like each other than we actually thought -- the collective 'we' -- and maybe we'd get off our high horses and love each other, and really love each other, and hold each other accountable, and not be so afraid to do that because we'd trust one another more readily. i see these values being shared more and more, and maybe that's because i try to surround myself with people like you more and more
