"And sing to the sun..."

Did you read that book hotel new hamphire? remember the daughter Egg?
THe main phrase I remember from that book is "Keep passing open windows"
It pertained to "Don't jump out that window and die"
It pertains to a lot of things outside of the book.
In the context of the book it's a good thing, outside the book it doesn't sound all that positive. It sounds like "Lock in, don't smell the air"

I had a particularly nice run in with an old friend over the holidays, a friend whose music always inspired me, whose sense of life always inspired me. He passed all the open windows and I'm grateful. There are people whose friendship grows sweeter with time. Run ins happen not so much by accident but by good necessity I'm apt to believe.

And I am. Apt to believe that is.

Some people arrive just to remind you. They remember for you all the little and big things about you that made them want to be your friend, even all the things you since forgot yourself. They speak to you as though you still have all of those possibilities alive and well in your life without even seeing that you had long since cast some of those things aside and remind you that you miss them but they aren't gone or over. They're just culminating, waiting for a friend to come and remind you. It's like CPR.

So thank you, if I didn't mention it there and then. Thank you so much.
