the Art of Conversation

Greetings from a library on Madison Avenue in New York City. In this fast paced, immensely and densely populated urban mecca, one is bound to inevitably engage in conversation. It is possible to go a day without physically talking to another human, yet this may not suit one's personality. What do you like to talk and converse about? What are your favorite stories, topics, industries, and outlets for discussion? Do you mind talking about yourself? Or, are your more interested in others? Personally, am proud of certain elements and life accomplishments achieved at youthful ages, thus far. Often, enjoy sharing them. For example, my southern Texan pride and mantras.

The physical wear and tear of the work week, concludes and thus permits the weekend. A time for it's constituents to roam loose. A mini-vacation, a hiatus if you will, from the jobs, and duties that support their lives and individual lifestyles. For example, here in New York City and Manhattan, people are more casual. They walk more freely. Their attitudes passe and non inhibiting. A more welcoming, peaceful, carefree demeanor. While passing through Central Park, watched runners, couples, park "athletes", and tourists enjoy the slightly warmer temperatures and hopefulness of spring. I am glad our American society has created THE WEEKEND , and feel we are ALL better ...
