Well I will start with the easy things…

I am a human.

One who loves our flag. It waves to me a ll the time.

I want to help others.

I love my family and friends.

I have a Bachelors in Psychology but never used the degree in my IT career.

I like numbers. I know all my numbers…credit card numbers, identifying numbers, other numbers. I consider it brain exercise knowing my numbers.

I…

I wanted to find the thing that makes me different. If I can dream about Henry David Thoreau sitting in front of me in a classroom chair, and then tie him into my books, then I think that meets the definition of different. I think a lot about Henry. He is one of my favorites. I think we will be hearing from him in the future…perhaps he has a secret. That reminds me…I saw another woman. I did not recognize her. I have no idea who she is, but she seemed like she needed my help.

I am a middle child. I am constantly connecting others wherever I go. It is much easier to connect others than it is to connect myself to someone. Perhaps that is a broken thing. I am a “broken connection”. I think that must violate some kind of cosmic law because I am a middle child. It is important to not forget that we need to be connected. Why else would we be on earth with other people if we were meant to be alone?

I love that one of the last messages in Sri Town was to remember who I am. I do already feel like I love all of you…the readers, even the ones I have never met. It is possible to love someone you have never met.
