Reconnecting to that was so fun.

And just that daily rando reach out, I find it challenging to do because it feels like I'm wasting time and I have 50 better things to do and there's no outcome.

There's no positive output that I get from it.

But on another level, there's this very deep positive output that I get from it.

And another sort of one that I've taken on a little bit is kind of friction boosting, I think of it.

There's a great story Kurt Vonnegut told, and stop me if you've heard this story, but he was going to the drugstore in the town where he lived and he went and bought one envelope.

And the woman behind the counter was like, I've got a pack of 50.

You come here and buy one envelope all the time.

I have 50.

Would you like that?

And he goes, absolutely not.

On my walk down here, I'm going to make faces at the babies in the strollers.

I'm going to give a thumbs up to the fireman as he drives by.

And I'm going to wave to the milkman.

I do not want.

50 envelopes.

I want one envelope because he's kind of like in the friction is the good stuff, right?

And in the friction is the little connections of community that light him up.

And there's a ton of science that shows when it comes to fulfillment, happiness, energy, community, small and frequent

beats rare and intense.
