"To be trusted is a greater complement than to be loved."

November 21, 2003


As I sit here at the airport bar you really take notice to the wide diversity within our humanity. In fact, if what I am actually seeing is true sampling, a huge cross section of our populous and its’ diversity among humanity right here at DFW International, then what is still left out there among the other 280 million Americans and the 7 Billion Earth inhabitants must be insane diverse and unimaginable.

The diversity goes beyond any HR level of noticing people and classifying them into groups and subsect. What I am seeing, is the odd, the strange, the handsome, the beautiful, the unique, the short, tall, affluent, poor, the just getting by, the smelly, the fragrant, fat, skinny, leathering, tanned, hairy, bald differentials that strike me as strange and yet interactive. All these unique beings interact with each other and connect and in a way that resembles magnets. There is such tension and atrraction and bouncing off each other in this place that is like Pachinko on a ferris wheel.

Someone said to me that we are like little magnets and that has really stuck with me.

Its amazingly true and astute. We attract in ways that physic's cannot explain and we yet can also repel each other so firmly that there is no way we could touch each another (not if we tired with money or power or even cupids little arows) and if we did manage to brush up against each other in a miniman fragmented way, it would be a fleeting and momentary instance not worth recording, it would not even put a spike or a dot on the grid of connectivity.

Its weird. :doze:

I see people together that seem perfect, both sides of what has to be “considered normal” in the judgmental view of people. The “pretty people” and the “not so pretty people” definitely do attract to one another - looks and style and habits do add a factor of 10x to the magnetism on the humanity grid.

But at the same time, the opposite of this “pretty-ness” has its own attraction. They are the flip side of the pretty magnet yet they can attract and in some or most cased more strongly with its counter part. Odd how the non-pretty magnets create a better bond. Almost supernatural. They look beyond their attraction and the “what is suppose to be” and find the real magnetism inside.

To be a magnet, looking for the attraction to connect -the bond that ties us together, makes us whole, gives us strength and power, creates a union where safety is in the numbers - in such a way that no power or force could separate.
