Well, I grew up with Henry who liked to stand on his head in the grocery store. I loved this and I loved him so of course I'm going to gravitate to very strongly drawn people!
I’m now going to try to remember all the people I knew to be genuine. Genuine in character, good, bad, whatever. I’ve known them. And sometimes they were the kind of people you admired because they were just so purely themselves, regardless. I’d always think, wow 😃.
Yes, I remember one girl from back in the day, when I lived in Cleveland. She was wild. I think she tried to come on to me once but I was so clueless, I was, huh? But she didn’t press and it never bothered her, like, oh ok, then.
I love true Individuals -- one-of-a-kind, broke-the-mold, eccentric, outspoken, self-confident non-conformists.
Sure, there are times in life when we have to smooth down the rough edges a bit to earn a living. But beyond that, why be phony? To fit in with a bunch of other phonies? If you don't like me for who I really am, why would I even want you to like me?
