hello nice to meet you how you doing full and don't pay actually there are some bits I want to share a few from some may talk to the other day they told me they wanted you to hear it from a conversation with a noon everyday kitchen okay so there two things I want to clarify one I am completely sane although I was considered a career of
bird whispering next who wouldn't to Alaska thirty some fishes misses with two kids and trouble aside I'm completely saying and to I know you're thinking and you're exactly right talking to pigeons is silly when you gonna say to them I just always like pigeons how does one of a child's going to more than anything a bit like where one I believe we will school days where
I would approach them and right away they would slaughter off funny excuse to bend bread crumbs for the more productive activity of sitting on telephone wires but thought so we're at the turn of my sixteen year on earth I'll skip the chapter of angst and cures for time's sake I say it's no pigeons a little differently how they were bird brain but in a good way
simple minded yet resilient I admire them for their freelance lifestyle in unity if Yeltsin reference for a overcrowded overthinking mind well I'm a professional every pigeons but I can't say that I saw a good enough amount of time admiring them from a distance and lessen the courage to talk to them to be able to say this today I'm going to talk to you about a few
lessons I learned for Papa other occasion that I did manage to catch the pitch in my windowsill for morning coffee and chatter you didn't talk the art of fly away stories my first lesson Rome and listen they're everywhere pigeons we have tough car tough cut to come pups alleyways store fronts telephone wires to us they just moving landscape but there's no way in which the travel
cities Ohio which they fly from window to window a way in which they appear quite literally into the windows of our lives I do a whole lot more recently and seeing a lot more things and listening and when I was writing this I try to use the word wonder but I realize what I want to use was wrong you're almost to be able to move forward
without dwelling on anything be it all notions grudges you're almost to listen there was to be open open to the idea that every step we take is another letter another person's story and another word in ours and then old man few weeks back it was a rough week he also hype about the rainy weather and then my friend Cindy I replied with the condition of my
grades well continue to be a train wreck of a beginning somehow flowed the conversation I felt I was really good at coming of senses actually I speaking of eyes I have eyes to their brown who will suffice my physics teacher whose costs are failing I have to stop myself from talking and apologize well he said that's okay some people are like that and okay who wants
to talk about the world the environment dreams you want to pharmaceutical school he served the navy has grandchildren depression rise and when it's time to go he said thank you and I know you can define we're also going up anyways and I hope you make mistakes because you have all the time in the world to find out who and how we are I'll see you later
now I never saw him again but I can say that his words have stuck to me if you saw simple throughout a conversation between strangers but I realize now had I not chosen to take that little stuff off Lou sidewalk no this would have happened by not dwelling on scraggly gray hair baseball cap and worn flannel I don't groaned into history as he did mine and
I take it might apply thought was ending of my story in his assault that they were still just rough drafts grand adventures in the making because it has a way in which we take the rough facet realize into the path of others Kuwait which conversations are editing conferences how we revise some ideas Polish some and hold others a little closer to heart on the days you
feel like the feelings would just collapse in the wall the Titan we hold on to her parents and keep writing which I skin into paper and I were thinking so the tremolo more step off the path and let's must listen a million ways more I hate to the old man with the galaxy in his eyes in the oceans and is critical I think you we can
draw a conclusion to a story when we've only seen a window of a and can draw a conclusion to our own when we still have pages upon pages to go so while we're kissing her stories wouldn't running forward set something somewhere somehow will run into it grab onto it and belong my second lesson Jason long they feel a certain group of pigeons dot send their other
feathery friends I learned what it meant to chase and blah and the miserable countries it was other than like with my little brothers is a rather nice about it with water and trees but I won't be a really good idea to harass the line of ducks every time they move fast I would move a little faster and every time they moved a little faster to crack
a little louder in a Cup isn't really funny for some reason I'm ashamed to admit I was cackling but why does pressure within performance because right across the lake there was a mixture of birds pigeons and their comrades about a hundred in number to my dismay are surrounded by a flurry of feathers one is a no shame until they're running at full force from a flock
of angry birds and in my moments of desperation I flash from shame to the realization of chase and along there's no hesitation from the birds to save the ducks from the stupid human girl rather there isn't overwhelming sense of love and I don't know how to between the two groups well there had been the dot saving a baby pigeon from an angry squirrel or I interspecies
marriage but I don't know well what I do know is that somewhere along the line their stories across because belonging transcends blood and distant we spend a lot of real life things stories of others so much that we forget that ours I was living every page so try to insert ourselves as friend a friend be from three C. friend five be buy from the six but
so you write me right over a case there's just so that we can become worthy of their story and we try to settle into the comfort of being wanted needed just so we can accommodate for the satyr chapters in our lives but fats chapters that make a sad story another artist precious the good and the bad they belong to us we belong to us and the
moment really realize this we realize that we are loved in other countries but chasing the backs of people who would never look back there are people holding on to us type so let's take this important to us for us and we must not forget that we do and their days on periods winter nights a columnist and Steve come is that we spend we should spend our
lives chasing these commerce or Russia near pigeons have takes the fun flying on a non they promise resolve in the pierced the forums I spend a lot of our lives chasing pigeons a great deal enough little place to place but we'll find where you belong and who you belong with let's all love our stories facing block so well we're falling in love falling out of love
pulling on and run for it we need to remember the strong smell of pigeon talk wonder on my weekends I have a gap of time between my morning classes and whatever my little brothers to finish with their piano classes to ponder the area route one in the area around my parents work place I stop by later hello to the corner shop owners I pump by the
rest of my little brothers and I are regulars house for a week and a free drink and there's a climatic print shop I still wait for the Gramm who sells vegetables at the corner to come back I miss it and unfailingly pigeons perch a faded pink buildings how close they get to people tilting their head side to side curious wondering Saturday mornings there is a wholly
placenta since for gotten that childish bliss in wonder in the moments we are wide eyed and warmed by the new in the way her breathless swept away by the ever changing sunrise and sunset Lina step aside a hell of a lot more again to be excited again to allow ourselves to wonder to be excited by the little things to be curious about stories and to wonder
anyway I stress me and the wonder of how words experts exchange and the wonder how some leaves are starting and then the wonder of three M. conversations on the topic of violin because pigeon I'm good at inching a little closer to us had soap fan gleaming I a master conversationalist aroma her with the police to block chasing bread crumbs and shiny things curious what home should
only take a good eight minutes but it's really tough an hour or more to get back because every step I'm stopping to take a look at a clover patch pick up leaves make wishes on dandelions and the converse putting so let's talk hello Mister pigeon it's been awhile how are you doing me no okay actually the old head of the bust up told me he was
