Last night we and twenty friends sat around a dining table under the trees and I listened to the conversation around me and realized then that all the people I like are good at conversing. Some are better at talking than conversing but that made it even more wonderful to have everyone together. <br /><br />Where, may I ask, whose journal were you reading?
