ended up having a really really good time last night. met a lot of new random people, had some pretty interesting conversations, drank some free tequila...had a really good talk with jane in the bathroom, which probably pissed the people who were waiting off.

it's like jane said...while we may have different religious and political beliefs, our cores are very similar. and it's people like that who you're drawn to time and time again. for us, it's people who are very comfortable with themselves and who are out to live life and love life and make mistakes and learn and grow. and with the conversation, i came to realize that my core group of people is not a certain group who hang out together all the time. it's individuals from every sector of my life who i know i'll always stay in touch with. sometimes we'll experience life together, sometimes apart, but we'll always be able to catch up because we have understandings of who the other person is, and so when stories are told, they all make sense.

and that's what keeps it interesting for me, which is so important.
