People in my life are like ghosts passing though; repeating memories of different past experiences. I guess the value in it is to learn from the past though and make it better, with practice.
Even pets. Holding Booty this afternoon, watching tv, I suddenly remembered how my pet bunny, Bunny, used to feel when I held her. Same white paws. Same huffy breathing sometimes (similar name now that I think of it). Small, fragile bodies, but a burst of energy when tired of being held.
Of course Booty is now, Bunny was then. but it felt so sad all of a sudden to be holding something that was so similar to someone else years ago.
EDIT: But Booty's smarter than a rabbit.
a diligent and creative labor of love spanning decades; i log things i can't forget, so i don't forget them.

commit
When I saw my friend CJ after work at Starbucks, he mentioned hanging out this weekend and I used this word- again. He said "I have to say you're probably the most committment phobic person I know". And it wasn't just because I have filming on Saturday and dont know if I can hang. In the last year I've been juggling a lot of things.
And then I thought about all of this on my way home because I passed this sign in front of a church near me.
"I just want to leave a committed life behind" -MLK Jr.
Maybe this is a sign that I should change. In all things, I'd like to be more settled and intentional.
