sparks of human contact

so i have been incommunicado for quite a while. i wish i could attribute it all to studying, but a lot of it is also me berating myself for the inability to focus. i always end up tending to my neuroses and then before i know it, the entire day is gone with no progress in sight.

in between those days, i find little tidbits that remind me that in spite of this thing i am dreading, life goes on.

like how the other morning, at breakfast, my mom said one of the most important things she learned from being in the restaurant business is that people are good. she pointed out that in the many people who come to eat at our business everyday, there are so many of them who are kind enough to offer words of encouragement, or to go out of their way to give feedback and critique.

people are good. it's a lesson i need to relearn for myself i guess. i feel like ive forgotten.
