A memento

Posted by jujube on January 31, 2005, at 23:33:21

I was going through a huge box of old letters, cards and other mementos from over the years (some things I just can not bring myself to throw away), and came across one particular card with a verse that I thought might be fitting to share here. Here it is, FWIW.

I do my thing
and you do your thing.

I am not in this world to
live up to your
expectations, and
you are not in this world
to live up to mine.

You are you and I am I,
and if by chance we find
each other
it's beautiful.

Thanks for bringing this memory back. I have this in a book of poems and other verse and used to read it so much when I was younger.

Thanks for spelling MEMENTO properly! (nm)
