I was speaking to Lenny yesterday and I said “how come you don’t talk to me anymore?” And she said “because it seems to me like you’re always on some peak of emotion. And near you, I feel flat, I feel static. Like I can’t meet you there.” That sounded like a negative thing to me and just like that, I started crying. Not even little tears, but full blown, bottom lip trembling tears and I told her this and she said “see! That’s fucking beautiful. You’re the entire spectrum of human emotion confined in one being. You’re power.” And there are some conversations that just need to be remembered and this was one of them in case I ever forget that there’s strength in vulnerability and people (including myself) find it beautiful.
