I love talking to strangers. I met a nice boy named Luke on the plane today. He is 16, a sophomore in high school, and wants to be a park ranger some day. His dad's a cop, he has one sister a year older than him, his parents are divorced, and he's moved around a lot. He lives in Nashville. I always want to talk to the people I sit next to on planes, and I find it amazing that HE was the one who took it upon himself to strike up a conversation with me. Good for him, wish I was more like that. What a smart and mature 16 year old. Wish I could stay friends with him, but we didn't exchange any contact info. Guess it was a fleeting friendship, but still so worth it.
