People we don't like could become our best friends if we took the time to get to know them.
See that fellow over there sitting in that yellow chair? I don't think I like that guy but I don’t think I know why. Is it ‘cause he talks a lot or thinks he is really hot? Perhaps it’s that crazy smirk or maybe some other quirk. I just wish he’d go away but instead he seems to stay. Just a minute! I’ll be back. Gosh that fellow over there isn’t really all that square! We talked and he’s really cool I guess I was just a fool. I think there’s a lesson here our talk seemed to make it clear. It’s with people we don’t know that our friendship doesn’t grow. When we get to know them well our friendship begins to swell.

October Illness

I sat outside a store and became aware of the flower pots in front the store and I thought how it must feel about the attention given to the flowers.
