September 10th

I watched Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind, and I thought about my friends in Nepal. I thought about how if I could just simply remove my memories of them from my brain, I wouldn't have to miss them anymore, and I wouldn't have to spend every minute thinking about how they are in Nepal, growing, learning and loving without me.

But, I think it's when you realize you have met the people you could not bear to live without, even if it just meant living without their memory-- once you realize that at some point you have had, or that you do have the people in front of you who you need, the people's who's souls match yours, that's when you meet those people. That's why you love, and that's where you live... at home.

But, again. Chris Martin said, "we'd all like to meet the right person one day, but in one sense of my life, I've already met the right people." So, I suppose that wherever you are, and whoever you are with are those people you cannot live without, not even without their memory. I have a friend who says experience is simply taking things from people, and offering them things in return... things learned. I have met all the right people, for one sense of my life, and I am learning from each one.

I guess what I am trying to say is that, my life was changed that night.
