I have spent most of my life listening. If you knew me, you would think I had spent most of my life talking; entertaining even. But the reality is that I have spent the better part of my life listening, as though I am trying to break some sort of code or solve a riddle. And for my sake, I hope the riddle is funny.
I want to begin interviewing my contemporaries; my peers. I could speak with people in both future and past generations, but they are merely going to tell me what they hope for the future or how the past is now just a thread within a modern societies quilt. I am very curious in what you may think about being a young person today; how you life is impacted by both the gift and curse of being young. Your immediate hopes and your long-term aspirations; your failures and inevitable successes.
But mostly, I want to know how you feel. I have heard on numerous occasions that feeling something is as powerful as anything else, and that reason and logic will only get you as far as you let it. But feelings are what keeps you awake; they are what you see when you close your eyes. They are the voices inside of your head telling you to fight, and they are the voices in your head telling you to jump. But mostly, feeling is something that makes each of uniquely strange; peculiar even. And suddenly, I find myself interested in the oddities that make us one.
All of us have Great Moments. I want to hear about them.
