Me, I prefer people who do things, even mundane basic things. Things that make them happy. Like reading books and discussing them joyfully with others. Getting together to play board games and have a good laugh. Riding a bike in nature, away from our online lives. Doing crafts, even not well.
People who just snipe from the sidelines? BORING.
I’ll be over here baking muffins to share with my new Solar Power neighbors club and joining a county committee to advocate for bike safety. I do puzzles to stay in touch with my mother in law; watch foreign films to connect with my son.
I started a community organization that hundreds of people have enjoyed for 11 years (so far) that benefits several local groups.
I’m not worried about being cool or color-coordinated. I’m filling my one precious life DOING things and making memories and celebrating anniversaries.
Some of us aren’t living with our lights in dim.

Thanks for the reminder of how well I’m enjoying my life.
Time to stretch & fold the sourdough.
