Inner meet me.

If there's one thing I've really been craving lately, it's a strong human connection. To find even one person that I can converse with about any topic...someone that always has something new to bring to the table...that would be a huge thrill. Substance is a big winner with me. One of my co-workers back home seems to fit that description, but accessibility is an issue. We live two completely different lives, yet when I'm finally home from school on breaks, I look forward to seeing him at work and striking up a good exchange. I like to chit-chat with all of my co-workers, but he's the one I spend the most time talking to, though even that time is limited. It's strange, but I get along better with a man 30 years my senior than with most people my own age (though I get along well with just about every person I meet)...we have so much more to discuss than I do with most of my other friends and colleagues. Part of that I may attribute to the fact that I've never felt my own age...always a few years older. I'm curious as to how that attitude will change as I get older myself, as well as how this idea will work out in the realm of romantic relationships. As this winter term winds down and I start to get weary of the daily grind, it's nice to have one spark of hope to cup in my hands.
