I like people, & somehow I'd forgotten that.

Sometimes I think without even realizing it, we get too busy for people.

Too busy to truly enjoy their presence, or just a good conversation. 

I've been far too content with the lack of social life I've had going on lately, and I think it's made me appreciate the encounters I have had with people all the more. 

I like previously mentioned boy. I like that we're both runners, and we talk about running together. I liked long-boarding together and his dumb jokes. & I like that I've realized we can be just friends.

I like Kami, from over here. I like people who are real, and kind, and make you feel good about just being you. & she's even lovelier in real life which I didn't even think was possible. I wish she weren't moving so we could just become best friends. 

I like my co-workers.. in fact, I absolutely love my job because of them. I like that we can all just be ourselves, even considering how completely different we are from one another. 

I like Madd & Jess. There's something about spending time with best friends who know you completely that is completely fulfilling and I think necessary in life. 

I like running into people at Walmart, the lady my mom is friends with, someone who used to be in my ward.. it's those moments when you see them and debate if you should ignore or go over and acknowledge them, and I've learned I'm always happier when I choose the second. 

& as hard as goodbye's are, I can't wait for all the new people that this chapter of my life will bring.
