Hippie Lou
Thank you for your words and for the effort you made yesterday, schlepping uptown to buy me tea. I'm happy the mantra resonates with you. It's yours.

I hope you find peace and fulfillment on your journey.
Hey, Lou you are one of the people in my life that made NYC special/tolerable. If you ever find yourself in Cali be sure to look me up. Going to miss our random meetings.

Hey, Im trying to wrap up a project--its dragging.  I would like to get together soon.  I want to know how the world's smartest beatnick is doing (including Ginsberg and Kerouack in that group).  What are you doing these days?  still blogging and strumming?  Maybe you should go full-metal Kerouack and write a novel for the young generation.  They are ready for it I think.  Lots and lots of disenchantment.
Anyway, I hear you were the master consultant on the pharma side

well, i think steve is being a bit generous

you made billions for some pharma company, a legend in your own time.
And then gave it all up to save the world.
so how is saving the world going?

a veritable candide, i guess
had to try to save myself first
still a work in progress
but i'm optimistic

De nada, Davito! I'm glad you're doing better. I'm sure there's lots of hard work involved in that. And beautiful weather is good medicine, too! Lots of love to you, too.
I just hate to see training go to waste. I do realize that some training should go to waste, be lost, or remembered only to be discredited. You are the best judge of what you can do. Or should do. I feel very negative about the marketing approach to causes and fundraising--especially when it smacks of "high production values." So maybe there is a parallel. Your studies in migration and your understanding of the economic drivers in bourgeois family formation and function  need to be shared. If you have to do it as a memoir do it that way. I recommend Detroit, a memoir by Charles LeDuff, who skewers mainstream journalism along the way (but recognizes what it can still do in the right hands). I am sorry for being pushy.

 What we need is breakthroughs in people. Ideally calmer ones than your own.

Shared a lovely afternoon shootin' the shite with a dear friend, Hippie lou....When I'm at my saddest, a good friend can do what no medicine can touch....just smelling the air after a slight drizzle can do wonders as well...and life goes on....
