What a great email! I could feel your ebullience while reading it. How lovely, I’m so glad you shared with me. It’s a whirlwind of good energy. Thank you.
How are you? you sound fabulous. I don’t really want to comment in detail on what you shared…except to say it was joyous and lifted my heart. you are very grounded…and so your positivity (and I’m sure your negativity) feels wholesome to me, something I could just breathe into and savor. That’s just sweet.

the coffee shop conversation
VINCENT
Good for you. Lighten up a little.
You been sittin' there all quiet.
JULES
I just been sittin' here thinkin'.
VINCENT
(mouthful of food)
About what?
JULES
The miracle we witnessed.
VINCENT
The miracle you witnessed. I
witnessed a freak occurrence.
JULES
Do you know what a miracle is?
VINCENT
An act of God.
JULES
What's an act of God?
VINCENT
I guess it's when God makes the
impossible possible. And I'm sorry
Jules, but I don't think what
happened this morning qualifies.
JULES
Don't you see, Vince, that shit
don't matter. You're judging this
thing the wrong way. It's not
about that. It could be God
stopped the bullets, he changed
Coke into Pepsi, he found my
fuckin' car keys. You don't judge
shit like this based on merit.
Whether or not what we experienced
was an according-to-Hoyle miracle
is insignificant. What is
significant is I felt God's touch,
God got involved.
VINCENT
But why?
JULES
That's what's fuckin' wit' me! I
don't know why. But I can't go
back to sleep.
VINCENT
So you're serious, you're really
gonna quit?
JULES
The life, most definitely.
Vincent takes a bite of food. Jules takes a sip of coffee
In the b.g., we see a PATRON call the Waitress.
PATRON
Garcon! Coffee!
VINCENT
So if you're quitting the life,
what'll you do?
JULES
That's what I've been sitting here
contemplating. First, I'm gonna
deliver this case to Marsellus.
Then, basically, I'm gonna walk the
earth.
VINCENT
What do you mean, walk the earth?
JULES
You know, like Caine in "KUNG FU."
Just walk from town to town, meet
people, get in adventures.
VINCENT
How long do you intend to walk the
earth?
JULES
Until God puts me where he want me
to be.
VINCENT
What if he never does?
JULES
If it takes forever, I'll walk
forever.
VINCENT
So you decided to be a bum?
JULES
I'll just be Jules, Vincent -- no
more, no less.
VINCENT
No Jules, you're gonna be like
those pieces of shit out there who
beg for change. They walk around
like a bunch of fuckin' zombies,
they sleep in garbage bins, they
eat what I throw away, and dogs
piss on 'em. They got a word for
'em, they're called bums. And
without a job, residence, or legal
tender, that's what you're gonna be
-- a fuckin' bum!
JULES
Look my friend, this is just where
me and you differ --
VINCENT
-- what happened was peculiar -- no
doubt about it -- but it wasn't
water into wine.
JULES
All shapes and sizes, Vince.
VINCENT
Stop fuckin' talkin' like that!
JULES
If you find my answers frightening,
Vincent, you should cease askin'
scary questions.
VINCENT
When did you make this decision --
while you were sitting there eatin'
your muffin?
JULES
Yeah. I was just sitting here
drinking my coffee, eating my
muffin, playin' the incident in my
head, when I had what alcoholics
refer to as a "moment of clarity."
VINCENT
I gotta take a shit. To be
continued.
Good for you. Lighten up a little.
