Then what is the purpose of Art? He’s been around a hell of a long time.

Purpose
Sometimes I really do believe in “purpose.” I think that some people come into another person’s life just to accomplish a very specific task, and then leave.
Those are the people that I want stay the most. I have spent years waiting and waiting, continuing my normal lifestyle until this person shows up. He shows up and shines brightly in my life, then all of a sudden disappears. The glimpses of beauty and potential in life is all that’s left in my world.
When I met him, I thought I would be helping him out. Maybe it was still true. Perhaps I already made a large impact. But I think that he really did a number on me. My cynicism and experience has served me well over these years, and it takes someone this special to open me up just a little bit.
I am still crossing my fingers. Such beautiful of a person cannot really disappear altogether, now can they?
