Chance Encounters

When you approach a social situation without hesitation you have a greater opportunity to experience something real. I used to listen to conversations, get lost in thought, and by the time I finally made a comment it was 20 minutes too late (Destiny, a stripper name.)

Now, I am far less reticent and have started to show my more ebullient side. I may be contentious and a little rash, but everything that I propose is simply a hypothetical and extremely pliable.

My complaisant days are behind me, and have been replaced with, what the most perspicacious would find to be, disinterested reflections on growth.

Bitterness, is simply a taste that needs a touch of sour to be transformed into something that is sweet -- gin and tonic.

Where does this leave me? There is always a continuous slope to the precipice, from which the once canonical jump has been, by means of social fruition, replaced by a gradual rappel.
