the secret

i skimmed through this book at alan's suggestion in a bookstore. i don't really want to get into my thoughts on it, as i didn't really read closely, but suffice it to say i'm glad that if i don't THINK i'll get cancer, or won't get wet in the rain without an umbrella, i WON'T. very, very glad.

but hey, it did tell me something i liked. it told me to think about all the things i like about the people i know, and even list them. so here's a list of something i like about my top twelve. i dont
know quite what order they are in without looking. here!

bret- my brother has a giant brain and a giant heart, and he teaches me how to use mine better.
alan- at any given moment, i want to be wherever he is.
david- doesn't believe in faux pas, and lives that way. he's grand.
marsha- someone once called her 'exquisite' and it's the best word for her, ever.
dondrie- really, if i had to dance with someone forever. i should be so lucky.
josh- he sees art in any text message, evening, or moment. he is art.
leigh- has just the right quotient of sentimentality.
xua- is like the sun.
ben- surprises you.
daniel- he is a giant dutchman and his words are pictures.
sam- manages to make being 135 years old completely hip.
stone soup- makes good plays.

well, look at that. that did feel good, Secret! I owe you $23.95.
