I've been thinking a lot lately about the marks people leave in other people's lives, if they leave at all. And why some do and others don't. My collection of these traces is quite varied. Someone came into my life for a while and made me change my worldview. Someone left 3-4 songs, or 2-3 words that are carved into my memory forever. Someone has cheated so bad that taught me to be faithful forever. And someone explained love in such a way that now I don't want to say this word because it seems corrupted. Some are thankful to have been in my life, and some are thankful to have left. And someone left like there was nothing at all and now there are no words about it, no regrets. Amazing life!
