In all the years I’ve been alive I’ve met so many people. Some were in my life for a while and then disappeared. Others have been around for decades. Many I’ve met just briefly.

All these other lives.. Somehow, when glancing shallowly, they all seem less rich, less interesting than me, but that’s of course an illusion. In all likelihood I’m boring and they have rich amazing lives.

At least I hope they do. Some do, for sure. Others probably struggle? I hope not.

I’d like to say: It was nice to meet you all. I wish we had the time to get to know each other better.

Perhaps we all meet again somehow? That could be interesting. What if we had a culture that somehow required us to meet 10 years after we last saw someone? Sounds like something from an episode of Star Trek. But that’d be a fun social experiment. Ok, maybe not always fun. Emotional, more likely.

I doubt it would be boring.
