I think that's what scares me: the randomness of everything. That people could be so important to you might just pass you by. Or you pass them by. How did you know? I felt that by walking away I was abandoning him, that I spent my entire life, day after day, abandoning people. I realize it makes no sense to feel that and yet never make any attempt to interact with people, but I am beginning to think life is full of these tragic incongruities.
