Pining on public transit

Go ahead! Imagine the meet cute for that incredibly hot person that just got on your train because it’s silly and fun and doesn’t hurt anyone to think about the “omg what if” for the 10 mins before they get off at their stop and you never see them ever again

staring out the window

love long bus riders or having some free time to just zone out and look at people. i like imagining their lives and giving them names. lol (me and my best friends loved doing that back home too so it's sweet to do it from the other side of the world)

enjoying the company of kind strangers in public transit

greeting each other with a simple smile 🙂and then chilling in companionable silence for the duration of your ride. you’re both on your own separate journeys, but for a brief period of time, you’ve got some nice company to enjoy the trip

REALIZING THIS IS MORE ABOUT WHO YOU ARE THAN WHAT YOU KNOW/HAVE/DO

It occurs to me... that the posts I most connect with are ones where people unfurl their weirdo habits, values, inner lives (i love the "crush" genre of pi posts), ways of living, likes, dislikes, life philosophical points of view etc. I do treasure proper recs with an object, i.e. a new record or book or 8 hour youtube video, but I find myself really moved when someone shares how they live a good life. appreciating!!

saying hi to acquaintances in public

I've been on a real journey lately. You see the person across the room and you know them... and you know they know you... but you know that they aren't going to come over and say hi... do it. Take the plunge. However the approach needs to happen, make contact. Don't wait until you see them at the next networking event and say "hey were you at the taco place the other day?" It's surprisingly empowering and frankly kind of an impressive social maneuver. The reward is giddy and powerful and immediate. It makes me feel like I've broken out of the matrix.

TELLING THEM YOU CARE

Any degree, any intensity, the world needs to know. If the care is there, u gotta share.
