The quality I most covet in most people I care about is their indifference. Unlike me, and unlike so many of us, these special ones seem to have an internal stop button, a buffer beyond which their feelings do not extend.
They experience life with the same transcendent loves and bottomless despairs and somehow come off as totally indifferent...pacific...whilst I tend to look more like a one-off freak.
It takes 43 muscles to frown and 17 to smile. However it doesn't take any to just sit there with a dumb look on your face. Should I try it? :-)
