But after my run, and I was walking to cool down, I passed by a lady walking her dog and we began talking. She had noticed me running before and asked if I was today too. The conversation was very pleasant, and I think it's these little things in life that keep us going.
When your life seems boring, go out and meet some people. A good way to do that is through sports or other common interests. It's not always about doing incredible things, but rather about meeting the normal people and getting to know them. Little surprises in life like that conversation I had is why we live. Or that's just what I think.
Anyways, the lady looked like she was in her late 20's, and she also said that she had just graduated nurse school, so I'd say she's around there. I wonder if she realizes I'm fifteen... Recently, older women seem to think I'm a lot older than I am. I sure as heck feel like it. Fifteen sounds so young, but when I talk to older people, I feel like I can hold an equal conversation with them. I wonder if they'd talk to me the same way if they knew I was so young?
