Paulina was a content intern at our agency. The smart and cute type. But what made her most attractive was her work ethic. Often we were the last ones to leave the office.

Chase
He knew his way around Old Town that was for sure.
I remember when they came to get us his back was to the entrance of the cafe. So he didn't notice until I pointed them out. That's when a look changed in his face. In a flash.

Die today, Die tomorrow
Before he was killed he pleaded. He was too young he said. He had his whole life ahead of him.
In that moment he was then asked. Die today, or die two decades from now. Why does it matter? Do you think you would make anything out of your life in...

As the plane descended into

Tempelhof
!".

Remember it always felt like i was making fun of you when I'd ask what you wanted and you'd say you wanted to make more money?
I never thought you were trying to make fun of me.

A perfect day
Today was a
perfect
day for me. Nothing extraordinary happened. In fact plain things happening at just the right time with the right person.
Then I guess at the end of the day the important thing isn't that the right things are happening with the right people. Because what does right...
