Attractive holy nuisance!
So: a party, a love of the other conversants, a love of conversation, and a love by conversation of me: this spells an attractive holy nuisance!

You wanna get something
Done in the world?
Become an attractive nuisance!

I prefer to get my advice
From someone with mileage on them—
This is a much better criterion—
If less easy to gauge—
Than years
Some people don’t cover many
Miles per year
Others, early on, make great time
Wisdom and practicality
Tend to go with miles
Not always with years

Remember Herman O!
:- Doug.
Invite the conversation because
Of love
Be in love
With conversing
With those you’ll engage
And back:
Go a-courting
:- Doug.
You want to be a success
Will that make you happy?
Why not cut out the stand-in?
:- Doug.
They are already in love with conversation and me!
:- Doug.
New conversations to engage. Every day.
:- Doug.
New things in the world to do.

What do we say to our children when they have a spat with a sibling or a neighbor kid? Go and make up. No need for judgment pro or con. Simply play together. Forgive, for it lightens your load.
