I am pinched by how we’ve twisted human connections.
Turning meets and greets into chess matches.
Should I call, or should they?

I can’t stand them!!!
Life is already too burdened and too complicated to play around with our most innate desire.
Think how happy we would be if we eliminated losses or gains.
If we weren’t too obsessed with power or weakness.
How sweet would our morning coffee be if all we had to do was pick the damn phone and just said, “Hey, I like you…”
