I took a ride on the local bus on my way home from work not too long ago and while on the bus, I am able to examine and just people watch. I have written a prior entry about people watching and found it to be quite refreshing. However, this ride made me take my idea one step further. I watch people, one at a time. I saw actions and emotions through those actions that brought up a question. What causes people to do what they do? What are their motives? What is their story?
This is what made me write this entry. I want to hear your story. I want to get to know everyone. If not for people watching, I would never get the insight into other people's minds. I would never get to meet new people and make friends. If not for people watching, I would never think about this and never take it back to myself. What's my story? If you asked me that, you definately would be in over your head with quite the story. But, I ask, if you wouldn't mind...what's your story? I want to know about you.
I'm not asking for a long drawn out story minute to minute. I'm asking to get to know you. Only child? What do you look like? What makes you smile? What makes you read my rambling? What makes you, you? I want to know your story.
My name is Kristin, and I'd like to get to know you. *extends hand in greeting* Will you take my challenge? |
