this is what I imagine eating an artichoke is like


On the first day I came into the house wearing glasses, his brother asked to try them on. I was so surprised when he brushed my forehead to move my hair aside. I didn’t have a strong impression of him until that moment.

I visited a dance teacher in her home for a private lesson this week, and I found myself doing the same thing to her. Her claw clip didn’t keep all of her hair back, and so perhaps overstepping, I pushed the loose hair off of her face. She smiled a little, and it made my whole week.

Give the people you meet the chance to surprise you.
