Hey Jude

I love this song. The movie was good, too. Cuz sometimes, you just need to go out and get it. And make it better.

You must see you when you watch it

I see me

I bet other people see themselves

It's not like you see yourself as Jude (I don't) but more like you see everything else as a part of Yours. Your crazy friend. Your mom. Your blue walls. Your streets. Your jacket. Your song. Your leaving. Your rhythm on street cans. Your kids you know. The colors of things, those are your colors. The heaviness of the air, the color of the air, that's yours. The way the air smells, that yours too.

And it's not yours because you own anything. That's part of it, you don't own anything at all. You just Are, and the things you have, are things you have in your spirit; tangible things, places, people. They're things you have in your spirit.

That's what I see when I see me.

and when that's true, when everyone sees themselves in something, you know it's good. literature, films, art, in other people.

Jude's in Mexico, right? Then the states?

how do we get there?

ay, I'm in no way an expert, I've just been observing. I guess the first thing is to expose the friendship for what it really is. Good or bad. Then be willing to do whatever it takes to make it good, if it's possible or the people involved are willing. Some friendships are far too long gone, because they were left unopened for real-real for too long of a time. And people were too far hurt. Some friendships wern't very good to start with, so that is the reason they are like the way they are now. The question is if it's changeable or if it's left too many scars, or if it's just better not to be touched. I think changes in a friendship that seem bad, may not neccisarily be bad, it might be for the best or for a way to grow. I think the main point of friendships, and when you get friendships is to make sure you are real with the person and your relationship stays that way.

And of course friendships with the opposite sex are a bit different then ones with your girls, because you want to guard yourself to an extent and still be open with them to an extent. I guess it's all in the way of what you tell them. You can still be the best of friends with them, it's just not always the greatest of ideas to spill your heart out to one. :)

You're like a true friend to me even though we're not that close. When I talk to you it's real, and it feels ok to have those silences. You know, the ones that with some people it seems awkward. :) I love you girl! :) Hope you had fun with those phone calls! Sorry I couldn't be there! :D
