Who Cares...As long As Long As I Do.

In a recent note to a friend:

So our conversation yesterday in the theater lobby was triggered in my thoughts upon viewing this status update from Sarah Greenhalgh...

"Every person is a new door to a different world."

So maybe if people were not so judgmental and careless with other folks feelings this statement could not only be true but a fascinating concept...I just choose to assume people are interested when they ask about my life. Even if it is a pseudo interest, it connects two people for a moment and opens up the mind to a new perspective in each encounter.

Topic of Conversation: Personal Info and Strangers Interests

We discussed the actions of human behavior in reference to the need to justify that which we feel is inadequate. What do you do for a living? What are your dreams? Where do you live? What are your passions? These are questions that often come up in random conversations with strangers and sometime make us feel like we must over embellish or perhaps justify the responses. But the feeling is why does it matter what a random person thinks of me? Do they really want to know or is this a pointless exchange of info used to pass time? The truth is, most people won't care about the responses to these questions or similar topics, but for those who do care, the quote applies.
