There is a common thread that runs through the people in my life that love me. They love goofy, needy, silly karen. They like to talk to me. It is wonderful. Both of my bosses are like this. My great friends from Baton Rouge. And there are friends here in Keystone that blow me away because they are interested in me. My dear bird, Robin, thanked someone recently for taking a few seconds to regard her. I get it. It is the most underrated, intoxicating, best thing in the world. To be heard and enjoyed. I don't take it for granted. It is how you love another human being. It's the primal way to give yourself away. Thank you to all the great people in my life that are sincerely interested in me. You save me. It is that big.
