Introduction

I am often found lamenting about the people in my life, either in loving, outrageous or incredulous ways. I believe so strongly that it is the people that we allow into our lives that affect us, change us and make us who we ultimately are.

I think often about how people have influenced my life, their colourful characters marching across the blank canvas of my future, leaving their mark. I don't think there is a day that goes by that I don't throw my arms in the air and say "I love these people" or "What's wrong with people?" or "These people make me crazy!"

I have met some of the most incredible people ever, also some of the most boring, some of the most nerdy, some of the most ridiculous and some of the most difficult! People make my life. Their stories sustain me. So I have decided to make a blog dedicated to the people that I interact with.

There won't be any names here, you will only get the pleasure of reading about them the way I see them through my eyes. To share my perspective for a moment and to see how I am affected by the people in my neighbourhood and beyond. All kinds of people, who affect me in negative, confusing, inspiring, sickening, delicious, positive and most importantly in loving ways... because as walt whitman said "i no doubt deserved my enemies, but I don't believe that I deserved my friends"
