the notion of joy for me is deeply entangled in the motion of opening up a grapefruit on a stoop in the still of summer, with someone’s knee pressin to my knee. (and maybe joaõ gilberto is playing) and we are staying there and talking and slowly it becomes dusk(ish). it’s a little chilly so we put on our coats and walk to the nearest store to get a six-pack and get back to that stop and put on a good album and get a call from some friends and everyone comes together and i mean. i mean. it’s all just this continuous motion. finally i’ve come to a place where i can negotiate between my two intensities, of being completely, completely alone, and to have all the people i love around at once. i mean, damn i really think that’s it. (i didn’t know it could be this way, i mean)
sometimes i get really caught up in my big dreams, my ambitions. let that take over the rest. but when i really think about it. god, i dunno. sometimes i’ll catch myself in a moment, looking around at the people around me laughing together, and think. maybe i’ll look back at this time of my life and think that i was the happiest, here. that this was the happiest i have been. the most good i have been. maybe that’s all that really matters. to have enough money to buy your friend’s dinner, to fill up half a tank of gas. to smell a ripe apple and feel it warm on your cheek. to sit, in a new place, with your knees to your chest, surrounded by laughter that does not belong to you. but that you’re just so glad to be able to witness. maybe that’s it.
